emphasis on the first clause, because it seems to be something elmu struggles with Gallant humbly admit his lack of knowledge, seeks to learn by asking people he employs, doesn't take rash action without considering the consequences, and honors the work put in by all the people who work there Goofus immediately says everything and everyone is rotten without taking time to learn about them, fires most people without taking time to figure out what they do, singlehandedly causes site-wide infrastructure fires pretending he was as capable as the people he fired, never admits he was wrong to do so, continues blaming everyone but himself these are personal qualities, or results of personal qualities. It doesn't matter if elmu's thoughts on the size of the company are wrong or right. He did all the things goofus did, and that's bad. Like, your entire first paragraph is goofus: elmu had no idea of the state of things, he just kept causing problems, blaming them on others, and crying "look at the state of things!” he fired the people who knew the state of things without asking them what it was, and he's not an engineer (hence all the fires he causes), so he certainly can't discern it on his own and the fact that elmu bought twitter after desperately trying to renege on his commitment to do so was purely a result of court action (which he fought against) making the purchase inevitable
