Lets think of a restaurant... Who do you give the credit to for a great meal? Who gets the tip? The person who set up the restaurant? The person who created the menu? The person who sourced the raw ingredients? The person who prepared the raw ingredients into components of a dish? The person who plated up your food? The person who oversaw the preparation in the kitchen? The person who brought the food to your table? The person who took your order? In the USA, and many other countries, you tip the table staff. Sometimes the kitchen staff get a cut, but generally, they just get paid to execute on the owner's & head chef's vision. If the restaurant won an award, would it go to the line chef who prepared the dish that the reviewer/judge ate? Hell no. It's not a programmer issue. Credit is about who had the vision and took the risk. The people other than the founders that get the credit are usually the sales staff. Very occasionally the customer is impressed and wants to credit the head of the delivery team, but not often... leaving a tiny bit of credit to be dished out between everyone else.
