Or perhaps only idiots start hemorrhaging money just because they're in the spotlight ... ?

In general, perhaps, but in what way does that remark relate - in any way - to the actual situation?

The actual situation seems to be that they're throwing an absurd amount of this guy because they want it to look good.

Look, I'm not an Apple investor and I haven't bought any apple products in the last couple years or so, I really don't care and it's not my business. But with my read on human nature, the guy would do the same exact job for 10 mil a year as he would for 58 mil a year.
