The great leverager that isn't mentioned or discussed generally is domain knowledge. The company has leverage if the cost of replacing you is low, and if your focus is React or Go or whatever, then the cost of replacing you is the cost of the next programmer who can answer the same interview questions you were asked, or write similar code to what you write.

If your skills also include valuable knowledge in the domain that you work in, or expertise in getting things done in that particular environment (or even in that company) you're well on your way to being priceless. And that pricelessness is what puts things back in your favour.

Domain knowledge can only be leverage if your domain knowledge is rare. The examples you cited (React and Go) and not rare.
