This has always made me sad, but I think you're right in a lot of cases. What I've always tried to do is to focus on basic productivity; make sure everyone has everything they need to do their work, and that most people do it in the same way, so you can make progress on the learning journey together. Whenever people ask me for help and want to set up a meeting (not just "please answer this on Slack and I'll leave you alone"), I record the meeting, try to touch on all the related areas of their problem, and then review the recording for things that would be interesting to write about it. If any of the digressions are interesting, I go into Notion, create a new page, and write up a couple paragraphs. Then I give my team "ever wonder what dynamic linking is and how to debug it?" and they can read it and know as much as I know. I really, really struggle to deal with the fact that people don't know as much as I do (I wrote my first program when I was 4 and I'm 39 now), but I have accepted that it's not a weakness on their part, it's a weakness on my part. I wouldn't lower my standards (as a manager once suggested), but I do feel like it's my obligation to lead them on a journey of learning. That is to say, people don't learn without teaching, so be a teacher.
