[Gor Gyolchanyan]

They ARE replaceable items, because no good programmer would willingly
get stuck on the same level for too long.
Good programmers tend to grow beyond their current employers all the time.
The difference is, that good programmers get replaced by, let's say,
the ones, who have a hard time grasping more then one programming
technique.
