My take on this is that engineering used to be more involved in the product side of the house, but that went away with the rise of PMs and designers. Remote work has made it a bit harder to collaborate, and companies are more willing to hire developers across timezones to save a buck.
Figma made it really easy to create high fidelity mockups, which took away UX decision-making from engineering. Many developers are happy to oblige, not wanting to be a part of any discussions.
So, what to do about this? That is probably a whole nother series of blog articles.
