I.... I'm not sure you got his point.

Steve Jobs was not a technologist, but he seemed to do a fine job of running a technology company. Bezos is not a technologist, but he also seems to be doing ok.

The argument here is basically that the apparent opposition between what business wants and what engineering wants is mainly illusory. That if you think about business correctly, a lot of engineering desires are exactly what the CEO should want.

The "engineers must control all the things" urge is exactly the same one that managers have. It's really, "People like me must control all the things." The reality is more nuanced, and more mundane: giving a single viewpoint control rarely works; what we need are contexts where people respectfully collaborate.
