> You will typically find your staff and higher level engineers rarely are actually writing code themselves.

Many so called staff+ engineers are basically glorified Google Docs engineers, or management who want to call themselves technical. It seems to be fashionable these days to call oneself "technical" without actually knowing anything of the problem domain.

They basically take all the "credit" for any innovation out of the team, and scapegoat other teams when project deliverables are not met.
