I kinda feel as if this was the money quote:

> If you got a free headcount increase essentially overnight, why wouldn’t you use it to deliver more value to your customers, faster?

That shows that, in reality, it's short-sighted profit-taking. Boss just wants another lambo in the garage, and doesn't really plan to be around, when it's time to pay the piper.

Also means they don’t have any ideas for how to grow revenue.
