Experience DOES make a difference. If you were building something, not just
software, would you trust someone with 30 minutes of theory or 30 years of
practical experience? People with experience know beforehand what is likely
to succeed and what is likely to fail. If they know from experience that
method A produces better results than method B, then they "know" to avoid
method B. People without that experience will carry on making the same old
mistakes.
