There's probably a bunch of other people could have writeen it just as well or better and it wouldn't have made a difference to the valuation of the company anyway.

I'm not going to write a trieste on why my abilities were unique and let me write this software beyond to say I had worked in that specific industry for a long while, but there were not many people that could have pulled it off. When I left, they had to replace me with significantly more people at a significantly higher cost and it cost their growth and stock price quite a bit.
