I'd say that my teams tend to meet the goals we set for ourselves (lol biased) without spending that long on estimation. We have an idea of our normal throughput and can use that to be somewhat accurate, and nobody gets shit if something ends up being harder than what we thought it was from our investigation, sometimes there are truly new things that are harder to predict. In those cases we take smaller chunks out of the big problem and focus on that first.

Anyway thanks for the advice on how it came across, I struggle with how to give this sort of view on things without coming across judgemental and I guess I failed here again, but I was honestly trying to say that I've seen your view shared before and I think the difference between you and other engineers that tend to be easier to work with isn't skills, it's just a slight difference in approach. But there's many different dystopian teams with unreasonable expectations for me to say that I'd think any different had I had the same teams and bosses that you had. Take care!
