This is a puzzling comment. Are you asking why the famously underpaid game developers don't bootstrap their own company? Because the answer seems fairly obvious, and it says nothing about the quality of Rockstar's management.

Does the concept of redundant middle management scandalize you? It's a relatively common experience, even if it's sometimes exaggerated. It actually takes a lot to be a good manager, and most people are not self aware enough to be good at it.

I am directly responding to the claims that management is useless and not needed. It's not puzzling at all.

Its actually brilliant I mentioned someone behaved like butthurt management last time and now its happening again with random insults and platitudes.

Now we get to hear about how obviously great management at Rockstar is compared to the worker there. Apparently its just obvious because otherwise, those workers would be management themselves.

If I was younger i would think this was a troll but Ive genuinely met managers like this. They think they are just better than people who are not themselves managers. Which literally makes no sense. As if the only purpose in a career is rank. They take no responsibility and feel personally attacked when its suggested.

Nobody is butthurt, kid. I responded to a specific claim. Instead you throw around insults like a child.

Literally nobody, including myself, is claiming anyone is "better".

Again, again, again. If you still management at these companies is not a key reason for their success and are instead redundant, useless, or otherwise not important, it should be trivial for competitors to do a better job. It's not that complicated.
