Exactly. I could easily download almost all of my company's code and send it wherever. But, nobody is going to be able to make any use of it, because they don't know how all of the various pieces (services) go together necessarily, and you'd probably still need a bare minimum of 50 engineers to run it (although that's just a guess). And, even if you did all of that, and replaced the very few things I'm not allowed to access with your own stuff, you still don't have my company's data, which is way, way, more valuable than the code. The moral here, I guess is that "code is not a company." Even if I handed you the code, you couldn't replicate the company I work for in any reasonable amount of time.
