I see what you mean but I also think it's a double-edged sword.
Some of my side projects have a terrible style because I was playing around and wasn't taking it too serious. If a hiring manager would see those they'd probably never invite me.
When I'm interviewing new candidates I'd like to see side projects as a possible point of discussion but not as an indicator how good they are.
Sure, I agree with you on that. I'd also see these projects more as an opportunity to discuss technology, approach, etac. I'd also not judge how good a dev is just looking at side-projects, for sure. :)
