How many people did Steve Jobs drive from the company on his return? (answer: the CEO, the whole board, and 1000's of employees)

At some point the Western intellectual canon of rhetorical tropes and logical fallacies will need to be expanded to add the "because Steve Jobs" fallacy which seems to justify anything on the basis of Steve Jobs having done it (without regard to context, or that the party in question is not Steve Jobs)

The point is that Jony pushing a few people out* as he takes control is hardly cause for concern.

What would be cause for concern is if the people obviously responsible for Apple, I.e. I've and Cook, were timidly playing corporate politics instead of decisively leading.

(* although it seems that the story of Christie leaving because of disagreement with Jony is actually a fabrication)
