Yes, managing the team's cognitive load is one of the primary jobs of a senior technical leader. I feel lucky that I've been able to pick up as many tools as I have, but it was generally only two or three at a time, and the more I look around, the more great tools I see that I still don't know how to use. That doesn't mean they aren't great, but I know that even with my decades of experience, I wouldn't be able to build something with those tools without a big upfront investment in learning them.
