Yes, exactly. Primates gonna prime. There was an extended tweetstorm from a former Valve employee that just screamed "tyranny of structurelessness": https://www.reddit.com/r/valve/comments/8zmp07/former_valve_...
I strongly believe that there must be better organizational structures than the white-collar neo-feudalism that is the average American corporation. But I think we have enough examples to say the pure "leaderless" model is on average worse once you get above a very modest number of people.
