You are far too short-sighted. Transformative growth goes well past 2021. Here’s my guess of Glen Shapiro’s masterplan.

2021: Tom Wilson is locked in a closet.

That is a good plan
You can only base the future on past "performance".
Obviously, if you're temperamentally comfortable with job security, you are at risk sticking around
