Context obviously matters and I think it is important to understand what I mean by "Very High" and "High" impact employees. High impact employees can still do everything by my definition, it's just that they aren't doing everything. Obviously some business/projects do not have the luxury of attracting lots of talented employees, so "Very High" impact employees are inevitable.

The number of files that are being changed with only one author is 419 (or about 25% of all the files changed in the 90 days window). So 75% of the files changed in the 90 days window have two or more contributors, so I think those working on the vscode project aren't being siloed (based on my quick observations).
