Good point. And it opens up the broader topic of measuring impact/value.

My personal experience from the startup world is that I fill in "auxiliary" but crucial roles which at the same time are not roles that can have an economic surplus (nah, not even break-even!) if we were to go "a dedicated person for each role".

Paraphrasing one of the up-thread commenters: _Yes, it's hard_.
