A CTO (and any other C-level) should be measured on delivering results, not on schedule. If they can deliver in 30 hours, fine. If they need 60, so be it, but maybe they aren't cut out for being a C-level. I've carried a CTO bag a couple of times in my career, and if I'm working 60+ hours week in and week out, I'm certainly questioning how I'm doing my job. It usually means I'm not delegating correctly.
