I'd say it's definitely a "normal" thing to do. A lot of people don't understand the importance of organizing until they've read a bit of theory, and saying they were wrong to do so, or framing them as privledged, isn't the right path. There are two "wrong" camps, those who only read theory, and those who only do practice, though the practice camp is less incorrect. The correct group is the group that tries to balance both.
