That #4 probably should be better be stated as "10x engineers know how to find the fault more reliably" as engineering is not about memorizing the line of code.
And also that line doesn't make sense because if 10x engineer knows every line of the code, then s/he wouldn't have put that into production in the first place! (if the engineer did know, then that engineer was either lazy or up to no-good 😉)

Makes sense, I think the OP has had no real experience work programming and/or leads a team who is feeding him bs.
Reminds me of an old joke...
