Since I do the same process described here (at a FAANG), I’d like to elaborate on one more thing: responsibility. Upper management trusts me to do a good job along the entire pipeline, particularly at the hand-off to the maintenance/independent-development phase. Not every company actually defines a role like this (mine doesn’t), but it is a role every healthy large-scale company needs.
