A lot of good programmers can recognize that a quick but inefficient VB script can do better.

Quite so. Some "best practices" only earn their keep once they become ingrained and automatic. Prior to that there's additional cost that only makes sense when amortized over a long enough time. If there's no real reason to expect that payoff then there's no good reason to make that extra effort.
