Do all programmers believe that usability is 'stupid'?

Was just reading Jeremy Zawondy's post about credit-card validation bloopers and how some sites did not allow users to input spaces and dashes. While most programmers attributed it to programmer inertia, some of them were quick to blame the usability person [see comments on the above post]

Good interaction design principles, by the way, will not restrict the user in such a fashion, it's a pity to see that some programmers do not understand this.

Do all programmers treat usability people the same way?
