But you never heard someone say "you should still code in assembly so you can understand what your compiler is doing".
That's true but a similar advice that is given to junior developers in their early career is to actually reinvent the wheel, so that they can learn from the pain and then rip the profits of using reusable components. That's unvaluable. You have to read through thousands of lines of code and write some more yourself to get good at programming.
