The real problem is Netflix rally refuse to hire merely competent staff for boring work? Do they really need 10,000 major innovations every year?

Even pro sports teams have paid support staff working with the "players".

The point is that even for boring work (e.g. a janitor) it’s better to hire one really good worker than two average ones.

And good luck retaining your highly paid janitor. Someone has to be the coaster in a workplace.
