Pilots aren't expected to be design engineers and SREs aren't expected to be software developers.

At least in my experience, operators and on-call engineers aren't necessarily responsible for remediation and validation.

Before you take me too literally, there is, of course, an overlap of skill and trade, but I believe the pilot analogy is more apt than you argue. I do agree that the difference in consequence and stakes is meaningfully important, however.
