So aside from automation (which also has tradeoffs), when you shift left, what gets shifted right?

The knowledge needed to do the 'shift-left' tasks. The downside of making your developers take on more tasks that used to be handled by someone further down the chain is they need to know how to do those tasks.

Why can’t you shift the “someone further down the line” left along with the task?

This is interesting. Seems like it would mean something like having QA or infosec pair program with app devs. I'm sure somebody does this and am curious how it works out in practice.
