I think this is a behavioral question, you know people generally don't ask for help this make she is uncertain about something and this is uncomfortable for most of the peoples. But for developer's I think not, just see forum's around community's like Linux and some others you'll see the most of it sharing, looking and asking for solutions to solve their problems, for example, FreeBSD is old Unix system and they have a lot of information to learn, this implicate they'll face hard problems with usage of the system, but you clearly see community's, forums and others, like FreeBSD Facebook Group, to solve, share and ask about anything related to system.
So my point is, most of the developers ask for help, but some just have shame to ask or problems to deal with doubts. But you know, people are different and this may variate for people to people.
