Thanks. I really appreciate the reply. It matches with what I thought might be the case. I've taken on a more senior role lately as my career progresses and I'm finding I'm spending only half my time doing direct delivery and the other half doing project management type work and coordinating changes across teams etc. I love the autonomy that comes along with it but I'm so used to the idea of getting paid to cut code that when I don't cut as much as I used to I feel like I'm not keeping up. Reality is I'm busy with other stuff and I'm learning to just accept that more and start to lean into it.

When it comes to grinding LOC, and even defining entire components, that’s what you have a team for. Trust them to do the needful, or intentionally lead by example until they can. Spend your dev time discovering/removing the complexity or laying the groundwork for the bulk of development to follow.
