I see no reason why someone isn't capable of being an awesome programmer and also not being very into it.

But if I were hiring someone to build something for me and I saw one person who loved building those things and was genuinely passionate about it and another person who seemed more "meh, it's a job" about it... I'd pick the passionate person. Especially if I were creating a team and wanted to foster a culture of people who are passionate about building that thing.
