Yeah, I sort of had the same impression. Imagine as a junior engineer having the following conversation with your manager: "Guess what? Yesterday I managed to triple my productivity going forward!" "Great! How did you do that?" "I hired two more engineers as good as me!" "You did what?" "Of course I had to pay them more than my own salary. Finding engineers as good as me who also work as cheaply as I do is basically impossible, I have no idea how you did it. I guess that's why you make the big bucks!"
