Yeah, but if you shoot for elaborate ones you will get politicians/lawyers not coders.
I don't have any source but from my experience mathematical/computer minded people are more likely to be introverted/talk less then arts people.

I think you are right about that, but that just means that if they want to be effective members of a team in an organization, they need to work on their communication skills. Ability to communicate is something you can learn to do better.
I know this for a fact. I used to teach public speaking, and students came out far better at it than they came in. The same is true for many other communication skills. See for instance Marshall Rosenberg's book Nonviolent Communication, which is great for interpersonal conflict situations.
In fact, I think a lot of introversion is at least in part due to poor communication skills that could be improved with training and practice.
As for programmers - same thing. If they are any good they are more than able to talk the talk.
Effective communication doesn't necessarily mean you talk a lot or are extroverted. It means that you say things that matter when they matter, and that is a crucial skill to have in almost any work environment.
