This is me. I've gone all the way from low level C programming to frontend. There is so much arcane information to keep in mind to keep yourself productive. And today's companies require you to handle politics as well, under the guise of ownership. Amazingly, software engineers just refuse to standardize and move ahead. Instead, reinventing the wheel is far too common. Reinvention is necessary but sometimes, good enough is good enough. Most engineering disciplines work on the standardization principle, which improves productivity and predictability. That said, companies and customers don't care about the underlying software, so I'm not going to waste my time on arcane knowledge either.
