Point wasn't that famous programmer don't have an easy getting hired. Their fame, by itself, would allow this whatever else is happening.
My point is that a theory that bases itself of "the qualities of great programmers" when you mean famous "rock star" programmers, is fundamentally flawed. I think the ideas of the great programmers, at least their great ideas, support this.
