Queue the cynical takes on reputation laundering/taking the blame and personal relationships.
While possible, surely we can all agree then when a large business is trying to pivot/explore a new field, it does not necessarily have in-house talent to make that work, nor does it actually have technical/business/operational knowledge on how to make that work. Even for something as simple (to us) as making a new app for example, do you really think they can just hire a bunch of freelancers or even a specialized app dev shop and that would work? You need people who have done this before to manage that work, and McKinsey is a safe option to pick.
It's almost a trope at this point saying the knowledge they offer is useless but you clearly overestimate the knowledge big orgs have/have actionable access to.
