I'm at the point where what I work on requires such a depth of knowledge that I just manage my own projects. Doesn't help that my work's PM team consistently brings in new hires only to toss them on the difficult projects no one else is willing to take. They see a project is doomed to fail so they put their least skilled and newest person on it so the seniors don't suffer any failures.

Simplifying things to a level that is understandable for the PMs just leads to overlooked footguns. Trying to explain a small subset of the footguns just leads to them wildly misinterpreting what is going on, causing more work for me to sort out what terrible misconceptions they've blasted out to everyone else.

If you can't actually be a reliable force multiplier, or even someone I can rely on to get accurate information from other teams, just get out of my way please.
