90% of code is just reinventing the wheel...

I disagree. More than 99% of code doesn't require to (re)invent anything at all. Actually, if we stopped trying to be too clever, it would be much easier to clean and refactor code.

Edit, to be more specific: mechanic, repetitive, naive code is maybe boring to write, but easier to read and understand.
