Having done all the theory and math, the pain is real when trying to explain a cool concept or why a piece of tech did something the way they did to a junior-ish dude who did some other degree or a boot-camp who doesn't care and doesn't need to care either. Worse is doing grad studies in CS, unless you are willing to move to one of a few specific locales for your area of specialization, there is no point at all in continuing.

This is a really underappreciated perspective. Few things are more disheartening than wanting to share understanding of a neat CS concept and have it fall on deaf ears. Given enough experience and depth of knowledge, there comes a time where the gulf becomes insurmountable.
