The bottleneck moved. It used to be writing code. Now it's knowing what to ask for, in what order, and how to validate what comes back. That's a fundamentally different skill than coding.

Only if your job was to write code alone, which isn't what most people do. Most of my job for the past 10 years was explaining to people what had to be done, how and then verifying they did it.
Any senior/staff engineer was already doing this, if they weren't they were on the wrong job or had the wrong title.
