I would argue the opposite: Junior and senior developers alike catch and swallow or log checked exceptions all over the place, making it impossible to know if your method call was successful or not.
This is why you should have code reviews. Letting juniors submit code without reviewing it is a recipe for disaster, no matter which language you are programming in.
And if it's a senior, well someone should have a word with him ..
At some point you want to swallow all checked exceptions at some point, because letting the application leak stack traces to the client is generally a bad idea.
