> One man cannot ever get over a 10 foot wall. > Two men together can absolutely do it.

Sure. But the counter example (which is what I believe the article is arguing) is that one woman can make a baby in 9 months, but 9 women cannot together make a baby in one month.

Whether an organisation's "work capacity" is bottlenecked by things like gestation periods which cannot be circumvented, or things like 10 foot walls which can be cooperatively circumvented - is a great question though.
