Yes, absolutely. Some days I am just not inspired. On those days, I just crank out something and hope I can come back later to fix it. I often find that the next time around, I have a much better solution. The problem is, this only works if your employer is understanding enough to let you run your own show. Such employers are rare, of course.

Sort of.
The first several years I was in software development, I learned more and more, which helped me to improve code I had already written. It wasn't that my code was "stupid", but that I just learned newer and better ways.
Second, as the language I use improves, it provides better ways to do things, but it is up to me to discern whether the "better way" is really better.
Third, there are those team leads who are less knowledgeable and experienced, and make me rewrite code to how they think it should be done, even though I can make the clear case their way is not better. In those cases, I do what the lead says do, then inform him or her of the shortcomings it causes. In a lot of cases, they then agree (after a lot of wasted time) that I should do it the way I had it. Sometimes, though, pride gets in their way, and they make me put out the stupid code into production - problems and all.

I asked him if he could explain the gaps in his resume.
He said "yeah, they are spaces and you type them using the space bar."
I hired him on the spot!

I like to imagine I would have merely replied "Yes."

I thought you hired him based upon content

...and fired him the next day for committing spaces instead of tabs.

At football tournament's England should be represented by it's media, it would be an all star team.

I sometimes think the media should form the next government; they clearly have all the answers....

That's true wherever you are in the world, too.

Even that's open to debate these days, sadly. There are some fearsome reputations from groups other than the English followers.

Especially doing front end applications that interface with large databases ?
Dealing with large SQL requests ?
Anything related to UI/UX ?

Hopefully the back-end API's support pagination and sophisticated searching. (That's a UI/UX clue as well.)

Have you seen (or read) this book: Designing Data-Intensive Applications: The Big Ideas Behind Reliable, Scalable, and Maintainable Systems[^]
I read about half of it and it was so deeply technical I couldn't even believe it.
People all over the Internet _say_ they're reading it or have read it, but I couldn't complete it.
i'm not that smart though. I gave up because it explained Databases etc. in such a deep way it went flying over my head. But, that is probably easy.
Check it out, because I think it may be what you're looking for.
