As opposed to Bezos and Jobs and Cook and Ellisson and Zuckerberg every other CEO, which doesn't have "people to run it"?

I think you’re performing the equivalent of trying to reason with kindergarteners.

They fail to amuse me either, like, CEOs not being some gods is not a controversial statement, you ain’t disproving anything.

That myth (or rather propaganda) that they are some übermensch that work more than you could ever imagine and are so productive and it’s all thanks to the magic of powernaps or whatever bullshit they make up to sell you the temporarily embarrassed billionaire tale is thoroughly debunked. They are ordinary people who got into a very lucky situation and didn’t fuck up too bad.

Bro, do you even HN? That's like the gospel here...

HN is definitely too libertarian to my liking, and many believe that the free market will solve every problem known to mankind in itself. But that’s their (naive) worldview.

I think the major difference there is, those people are all running one company. So while they also had/have other people to run it, they were/are much more significantly involved.
