> I think this is the crux of a lot of it. You only need one lead/rockstar/ninja/10x* for every 10-20 'developers'

I really disagree, ideally you'd have at least one in every team.

oh - I agree it would be nice... but very few places seem to do that. I've seen a lot of 'senior' people leading 3+ teams of junior/average developers.

edit: point being, if you can muddle thru - mgmt generally doesn't see it as a 'need' just an 'expense'
