I rather see it as scaling creativity. Nowadays I spend more time with designing, refining tickets/specs, code reviews and mentoring than coding myself.

I mostly enjoy it, it feels like moving forward. It is sometimes a bit frustrating to think „I could do that in a fraction of the time“, but it's important to acknowledge how to best spend the work time, not to do what's most fun.

Probably wouldn't enjoy it if I wouldn't be able to influence in which direction the work goes, though.
