The trouble is that it may make the urgency of hiring and delegating seem more than it is. Plenty of businesses won't need separate people to take on each responsibility for a while, if ever. Other than the really obvious ones, a new business probably won't even know which responsibilities might become large enough to need dedicated people looking after them yet. Hiring is always a fine balancing act, and hiring the wrong people and/or to fill the wrong positions is just as toxic to a new business as not hiring and delegating when the right time comes.
