You are taking the story further then it really needs to go. There is really no reason to assume that these managers are not a net gain for the company. I dislike the fact that a storyline where managers/business guys are the root of all evil can always find some takers. It's silly. Changing from a 5 person team to a 50 person team is tricky. Adding hierarchies & middle managers is potentially problematic. Moving from an engineer only company to a company that also has a CFO and an HR guy and such is also tricky. This is all part of the story. The simple story is dumb. Just as dumb as the spoiled silicon valley rockstar story.
