Something I’ve noticed in the company I work for is that team leads which still write code is that they will take for themselves the high visibility projects.
I even think this is sometimes in good faith, as in "this is some serious shot, better handle it myself to avoid failure".
My favorite pattern is what I call "code sheriff" lead, who does all code reviews himself to prevent bad code from reaching trunk. Then proceed to complain how you can't go on a vacation because all processes stop.
