If expert devs have junior devs to assign code to, that you review and integrate, do they become “hopelessly dependent” on junior devs?
My experience of expert devs is those who are happy to have extra leverage are not slowed much by having to do it themselves.
In no cases have I seen experts become “dependent” on the junior devs.
They do quite soon after they have become managers or product owners or “architects”.
Those were probably senior only in age.
