Thing is, bad programmers do sometimes get fired. (Way too rarely, might I say, but that's the CEOs valuing cheap labor and speed over quality.)

Bad CEOs get a severance package on millions and go working elsewhere.

What's worse is that someone who is faking-it can impact the income of many people. For example, if you're a young engineer that works at a company that switches a good CEO for a bad CEO.
