I believe what caseymarquis meant is not the amount of energy throughput but the kind of activity.

Marathon runners and sprint runners are both runners but they literally have completely different muscle structure.

So developers are judged by how well they do "sprint run" when they actually are supposed to be "marathon runners" on a daily basis.
