Is there a commonly accepted like... loss of producitivty/efficency number in % that is accepted at large organization scale?

Like is it just assumed "a large corporation is 20% inefficient compared to... a startup/quicker moving company" and there's nothing that can be done/it'll always be that way?

When you have the solution for inefficiency / corruption at large scale, 8 billion people can finally stop starting wars againt itself, reverse climate change and feed the hungry people.

In my opinion sound money is the best thing we have to coordinate better at scale, but we are already far above what any animal species can do.
