Don’t forget his stint at Intel. I met him there and aside from his brilliance, the other thing that stuck out to me is how short he is.

I downvoted you because I have no idea how commenting on his height is significant to this discussion. In fact calling out a physical characteristic that is irrelevant is generally to make-fun. I'm not saying that's what you were doing here, but it's just totally irrelevant.

He doesn't even seem to be remarkably short in the first place. Here's a random picture that I found on the internet: <https://www.hwlegend.tech/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Jim-Kel...>
It wasn't an attempt to make fun of but I can see how you and others would think so. I simply thought it was an interesting characteristic of him because there is a trend for CEOs to be taller than average.
lol I'm always fascinated by the weird psychology motivating these comments. Must be a troll.
