I take epistemological issue with that, basically, because I don't know how you measure those things. I believe fundamentally that the only way to measure things like that is to look at the outputs, and whether it's the system improving or the person operating that system improving I can't tell.
What is the difference between a "less good programmer" and a "more good programmer" if you can't tell via their work output? Are we doing telepathy or soul gazing here? If they produce good work they could be a team of raccoons in a trench coat as far as I'm aware, unless they start stealing snacks from the corner store.
