While I agree with a lot of the author's statements, that part is wrong in my opinion. I think it is more along the lines of:
- every skill has a value
- some skills complement each other
The value probably rises exponentially with the progress (similar to how much effort you have to invest, to reach a skill level). So having many shallow skills is probably not as valuable as being very good at one thing. Likewise being more skilled than the average (median) person on multiple skills can result in a high value.
In essence: If you want to reach a good value/effort ratio spend your time on a skill set and not just on a single skill.
