The author admits as much:
"I might be on thin ice here. I need an example of a profession which does not have the same kind of enormous talent differentials that we see in sports. I could choose something like lawn mowing, but the comparison to software will work better with a field that typically requires college education. I mean no offense to accountants or bookkeepers. And if there actually is a Peyton Manning in the world of "assets=liabilities+capital", I'll be happy to stand corrected."
> All of this doesn't necessarily undermine the entire point of the article, of course - maybe accounting is not a good example, but some other field could be.
Yes, exactly.
