I'm now a full-stack engineer. Instead of being ok at any layer, I don't know what I'm doing in the UI, the Service, the Backend, the Database, the Cloud Infrastructure, and the CI/CD.

But, if anything breaks, I almost always can figure out where it broke very quickly. A fix is always unpleasant though.

Yes, but that also means backend developers only have to worry about the code. Where I work, they always align on best practices across the company. While frontend is a mess of apps and frankensteined components.
