I agree, someone who is 10-20 times more effective is a big deal. Imagine if we had pilots who could fly you to your destination 10-20 times faster; farmers who could produce 10-20 times more food; or civil engineers who could build skyscrapers 10-20 times taller.
There aren't many fields where a 10-20x improvement is feasible.
