Damn. This just hit home for me really hard. On a previous team, I would take on tasks, learn what's going on, and then try to get a team mate up to speed so I wouldn't be the only one who knew how to run things. I feel like none of my team mates really took on those tasks or aspects of the work. Over time this made me really angry at the team. It really shut down my brain because I had so many things to juggle. I really wish I could have replaced myself. I wound up just leaving the team, I think they struggled for a while. When you're on a team with someone who seems to know everything, some people are much less motivated to learn the system. Also, sometimes things just suck. Sometimes you just have a team of jaded short-timers about to leave. Sometimes you have a team of junior employees who can "make things work" but leave a trail of half baked decisions.
