Good managers do what you said earlier - learn the tech, study the sheets, talk to experts and build appropriate understanding and knowledge.
Bad managers deflect, blame, hide, etc

True, if a bit oversimplified. But cynically, as a manager (one of the former type, I like to think), if you're able to outsource your work, while maintaining the expected quality of work product, without breaking any security/compliance/governance rules...I'm not really sure I'd have a ton of heartburn.
Even Tim's own product couldn't be reduced to 4 hours. "If only I didn't sell a nutritional product, I wouldn't be getting contacted so much."
Yes, and if my job was to fill out paperwork and never Engineer, I could do my work in 4 hours a week.
Heck even if I paid some engineer in india, I'd still need to review their work, including learning the technologies and data sheets. I'm not sure how managers deal with this, just hope for the best?
