Wow, I kind of feel bad for Holmes now. Seems like she really got taken advantage of and got romantic love interests confused with how to properly run a company.
What you said would make sense if we knew that she had him as role model. THEN you could make the case that role models are important and claim that I downplay their importance. But we don't know if she had him as role model, so again you're guessing. I could just as easily make opposite guess: do you know how easy it is to manipulate men by dangling sex in front of them?
