> as they cannot hire thousands of six-figure developers.

but they can hire about 12 engineers for 10 years, instead of the same cost to have a single [CEO during that time period](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitchell_Baker).

And i think 12 good engineers (at $150k/yr) for 10 years will have produced an excellent product (such as making firefox competitive with chrome...)

Of course, google, who pays mozilla the vast majority of their revemue, will have something to say about that.
