Then really Lichess should have FU money. This both secures his income as long as he continues working on it, then lets him hire a replacement whenever he decides to retire.

Sure, it's up the founder of course. I think the they've created enough value to deserve that money for themselves and to use in any way they see fit though.

Maybe that would be putting it back into Lichess when they retire or maybe after 10 years they decide they want to work on something else and they live off that money to do so.
