So you don't find the technological vision of somebody like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates to be an irreplaceable skill? Or the revolutionary intuition towards investment that Warren Buffett has to be an irreplaceable skill? The ability to think outside the box and redefine how the entire world interacts with each other a la Mark Zuckerberg isn't an irreplaceable skill? You're a fool if you don't think that the vision, determination and experience required to guide a Fortune 500 company to the top isn't an "irreplaceable skill".
