Great article. Currently, I am a Staff, but I need to manage some squads, and sometimes I have doubts about whether I need to code or do something more strategic for my team. In fact, I like to coding, but I have a long agenda in the internal company, and the leak of time is a lot, and the 20% example clears my mind and my goals.
Staff Engineering is a leadership role, and as such has a lot in common with more traditional management roles in Engineering. You might find some other articles that resonate with your situation.
