Nice. Non-compete clauses are nothing more than a tacit admission that they aren’t paying you a fair compensation for the value that you create.
I recently quit a company with a non-compete clause and joined one without, and ended up with a 30% increase in pay for the exact same work.

Either way, they make little sense for the vast majority of non-C-level employees. Employers should be bidding on the employee's knowledge and skills, like you say. If it's imperative that the employee not move to the competition, then do the cost-benefit to retain that employee.
