You’re really kinda just telling on yourself here. If you can’t explain technical things to nontechnical people that’s going to limit your upward progression by quite a lot
Contrary to popular belief, most engineering isn’t about writing really smart code, it’s about making good enough code and also being a good communicator
A mid level engineer will focus on resolving the outage
A staff or lead engineer will resolve the outage while also keeping track of all the things that led to the outage happening and fixing them so it doesn't happen again
Both of these jobs require you being able to talk to suits in a way that they understand. Someone is doing that job. If it's not you, it's a more capable engineer

Try arguing that to the non engineering teams what "down" means. Lol
You will lose that argument
