All I’m doing is putting real numbers to your statement. I don’t think anyone at DL will get 20+ years as an area code like you originally stated. Even 15 years is not realistic for anyone hired after 2015. All I’m doing is putting some real numbers from the seniority list to your statement.

I'm just gonna say that something with a "steep learning curve" means you have to learn a lot in a short amount of time, thus it is more difficult. A shallow learning curve has less to learn in the same amount of time, thus easier. That's how it's always been.
Carry on.

language is funny like that, and I’ll rage into the void about it until I die.

I’m not saying that it isn’t awesome movement and great timing. I’ll never be there, and I know and ok with that. You said it’s all about timing. Don’t hate on people because they might have hit the timing better than you. I don’t.
