> our heroes got to where they are by being unlikeable, not likable.

They really didn't though. At the most, their likability is insignificant. I'm reading the Walter Isaacson biography on Steve Jobs and I can tell you: Yes, he was annoying as fuck, but that's not the reason he was successful. If anything, it hindered him repeatedly. He got to where he is because he recognized the genius of Wozniak and knew to push in a way that Wozniak never would have (and not because he didn't possess the talent, but because Wozniak chose not to take leadership roles; it's something his father taught him and something he decided for himself).
