researchers are paid 2x what engineers are paid at OAI, even if it's not the same job there's still one that is "higher level" than the other.

In terms of pay at OAI, sure.

But being an engineer isn’t just a lesser form of being a researcher.

It’s not a “level” in that sense. Like OAI isn’t going to fire an engineer and replace them with a researcher.
