You're right, some are absolutely dreadful —I think overall, they're hit and miss. My main tutor in uni was the epitome of the scattery professor archetype, and he was brilliant. He genuinely cared about the teaching side of things, which is probably why his scientific career was only moderately successful. The actual professors I met were either like my tutor, or like what you describe, no midpoints
I have not met one like this, but my uni wasn't top tier. But I had a soon-to-be-professor doctor like this, great guy.
