How can you flatten without also removing a bunch of leaf nodes? Otherwise you’d have one M2 with 50 reports.

I mean, yeah, that’s the answer. More reports. More senior folks don’t need a million 1:1s and a bunch of micromanaging.

Plus if you’ve ever looked at the org chart at Meta before flattening started there were quite a few M2s/Directors/VPs with < 6 reports, that’s insane unless you’re spending a bunch of time on IC work.
