A big issue is that "business side", including UX, mostly have zero scrutiny of what they spent their time on or when important work will be completed. Whereas engineers get scrutinized about tasks by non-engineers who can't and won't understand.
And frankly, many times this hand-wringing about estimates is because product and UX took way too long to "plan" the work to begin with. So there's some natural resentment from engineers about this.
