It is not fair when it deprives the people working in the company of the recognition. Those people are critical to the successes.

Why do you think crediting founders with the work their companies do means that people working in the company cannot also be credited?

They can, and they should. Sometimes it is done. But to me it feels that many times a disproportionate amount of credit goes to founders/CEOs. People even fighting over whether for example Elon is successful or not, and completely disregarding everyone else in the organization. Or course the organizations are complex, but also mostly opaque - we do not know who does what.
