"All three are of your examples are wildly different in that they’re top-tier individual contributors"

And founders are not?

Some founders are at that level, and frankly, more important to society than most athletes or musicians.

MLB pitchers make $10's of millions of dollars a year, far more than most of our top talent.

My challenge is on the individual contributor part, not the top-tier part. A founder is not an IC, at least not past a certain point.
