In most tech doc departments I've seen, usually there are one or two
who are looked upon as the "tools guys" ... the folks who are more
knowledgeable about the software and hardware than the others might
care to be. They are often called upon to explain things to those who
are new to a particular tool. However, this is also very often a
rather thankless designation, rarely regarded in my experience as
being nearly of the significance of a very talented analyst and
writer.


And, speaking from personal experience, admitting that you know something about tools is tantamount to declaring that you are focused on trivia and that your opinion on more substantive matters is of no value. I'm beginning to appreciate the tactic of feigning ignorance of matters technical.
