And yet it's surprising how a lot of companies simply won't match offers or try to play games with CoL. Or worst, consider engineering a cost center when it's central to the business.

> nobody who works there is any good at "X", they should fail.
Except almost every software startup in the last three decades was started by folks that were not experts in the domain they eventually became successful in.
I would certainly hope that if the function is part of what differentiates the company competitively that they'd hire the talent. If they're trying to be the best "X" company and nobody who works there is any good at "X", they should fail. The dot-com era is littered with the graves of companies who thought that just having an idea was enough.
