I always thought that it was ideal that the most experienced person does the bulk of code reviews and clicks the merge button even if that means that they don't write much code themselves. It's a model that, for example, works very for Linux.

I think that there's a lot of value in having somebody who has a picture in their head of the entirety of a system who can spot impedance mismatches across projects and spot germinating code smells before they cause major problems.
