Deep knowledge of what? The way different browsers render things?

All of the Web dev I've been involved in is pretty straight forward stuff to manage records in a database or make it easier to interact with the records on a browser.

The only thing remotely complex was 3d rendering. Perhaps I have a narrow view of what is considered web dev now.

"Webdev" is not fundamentally any different from any other kind of development that involves a client and server component. It just happens to be served in a web browser. You need the same underlying knowledge as for other (common) types of software development.
