> Nearly all complex technical projects are owned by one super smart person (Ex: linux).

strange example, considering that the super-smart owner is purely a delegator at this point, and there are thousands of contributors.



Yeah, the OP is utterly delusional. Linus himself has said that he spends most of his day merging patches. Each subsystem, example: file system or USB, has multiple highly skilled owners/gate-keepers. I am sure that the file system gurus know far more about it than Linus does, and I say that with no disrespect to Linus.
