This has been one great thing about moving from "just engineer" to "consultative engineering/architecture/etc" in my career - learning how to speak to the business needs over the technical needs

At the end of the day, Ford doesn't care about its IT environment - they care about building and selling cars, trucks, etc

The NASDAQ doesn't care about the OSes on their servers, they care that transactions complete properly

Learn to speak to the business case, and the tech takes care of itself (more-or-less)
