I think the only people who don't value experience are those without it.
Skill is almost always a result of experience. Yes, there are those who "just get it" and can code circles around others but without the experience, they are having to reinvent something (perhaps albeit elegantly) that people with experience already know.
Case: Write me a bubble sort. You probably learned this in college and having gained that experience, it's probably easy now. A 16 year old gifted coder first has to consider the process while you are already writing it.
