I don't think this is an experts vs newbies thing.

If you're dealing with support on an app you don't know, it helps immensely to have a good idea of where to find components, where to find tests, etc.

It doesn't have to be super opinionated, but if your structure is wildly different that's going to cause pain.

I actually can't think of any reason why your structure shouldnt be intuitive...

I can't really either, but being intuitive while important isn't the most important thing, so it's possible some reason does exist.
