As humans, we look at our environment and try to find patterns. So if we find ourselves in a place with some people called "senior" or "staff" who seem pretty skilled, and some people called "junior" (or "no adjective", that's always fun to try to talk about, just in terms of grammar) who seem less so, it's natural to begin to think, "hmm, it seems that senior-ness is a quality I should cultivate and try to achieve. how can I do that?" These correspondences are not *random*, after all.
