That would be the case if CEO do not routinely waste innumerable hours on so many meetings, lunches, events etc with so many idiots filling the room. But may be "No punching down" theory demand to not call those people idiots.

AWS is losing marketshare to Azure and GCP. This is big deal, it was unexpected after years of Google/Microsoft trying and failing. Further AWS is losing share at a time when GCP and Azure are becoming profitable businesses, so no long
