I like building things with code. I don’t like group bikeshedding about processes, tools and “best practices.” Do I even like software engineering?

No, you like coding. Which is okay!

But it's the difference between an individual carpenter making a rocking chair for himself and his family, or maybe making a couple to sell to his friends, and being a structural engineer.

Bikeshedding is not a necessary antipattern to the process, but large software projects absolutely need group collaboration, and a discussion of processes, tools, and best practices.
