AFAIK, they provide only administrative support (payroll, HR, etc). That's not really "much of" the work on Let's Encrypt.

There's a whole lot of other facilitating not included in that.. like infrastructure (hosting, development, test), management, technical support, etc.

I think it's important to not underestimate the amount of time and effort that goes into the non-technical side of any organization.
