On the contrary, more of this please. Personal accountability is sorely lacking these days, from the heads of Fortune 500 companies getting away with golden parachutes after ruining countless lives in 2008, to shit like in the Ars story. Sure, hold the company responsible, but don't just let the person get away with it so they can run off and do the same at another company. Crooks and arseholes go from company to company causing damage everywhere they go because firing companies won't tell anyone while they let a person go. This seems to be a result of just that culture of silence, because how else can you explain someone becoming CTO of an org like this without know basic stuff about their own area of expertise? When minions make mistake, let the company take the heat. But when the person screwing up is in leadership and therefore directly responsible, it ought to fall on them.
