I didn't mean experience in general but experience with the specific project. If an organization loses everyone with that experience in a project, it's no longer their project. If they want to continue working on it, they must spend a lot of effort to understand it. I have more experience in the academia and with volunteer projects than in industry. Based on what I have seen, while talent does exist, it's rare. Success comes mostly from having the right mix of people working on the right project in the right environment. There are far more successful people and successful projects than truly talented people.
