I wouldn't want to go to war with squads where half of them can't carry the standard load and the other half can't keep up with a day's march. That seems a recipe for getting team performance down to the lowest common denominator.
Not sure how that relates back to software.
- carlsborg 6y agoCertainly you need to have a baseline for capabilities. All teams have specialist roles be it infantry, sports or software. A better analogy: the guy who wins the Nobel prize is not necessarily one who churns out the most papers. You could consider each type a speciality and you want both.
