What we need are programmers that will create new wheels to solve the new problems. Most of the old problems are already well solved. Sometimes studying the old solutions, predisposes you to making similar designs....it's ok if they are the best solution, but often we carry mistakes from the past forward into the new designs.

Additionally, do you know how toxic it is to make computer parts, on your own? We should have stuck with the abacus....:-)
