Some managers are actually really good at resolving conflicts without bias and keeping the team functioning smoothly. In tech at least, people who make things aren't always that great at interacting with other people.

Of course, the kind of manager I'm talking about doesn't care how/when/where the work gets done, and they don't micro-manage.

OK OK, I'm not saying all managers are like that. But I've certainly met a lot of them in my time.
