I won't pretend to know your situation, but this feels wrong.

Unless your management team is full of nepotism hires or bad fits that haven't sorted themselves out yet, it's full of people that were in your shoes.

Re: The Bottom - YOU may be an exception, but most people on the bottom lack the confidence or sometimes critical thinking skills to deal with unexpected issues tactfully. That's important if you want to make payroll.

If you are the exception, I preemptively congratulate you on your forthcoming promotion. :)
