You don't say that so-and-so is a "10x painter". Art is obviously not about the quantity of paint used per day, but how it gets used and in what context. This is what you seem to be communicating with your quote about bittorrent.
Because we're programmers, we chose an empirical measurement ("10x") as our term for high skill. This terminology is confusing and stupid, but now we're stuck with it
