I’d say mid-levels will follow along, but newer seniors will confidently throw ideas out for all to observe how gloriously smart and perfect they are.

You both are probably right. I see a lot of difference in how different companies or different dev cultures see seniors.

A lot of what people used to call senior has become "staff" in larger companies.

True true, my org doesn’t even have a staff level, it goes from senior to principal. Not meant as a rebuttal, meant as a reinforcement of role names meaning less.
Amazing.
