Excellent article. Based on personal experience, if you build cutting edge stuff then you need great engineers and reviewers.
But for anything else, you just need an individual (not a team) who's okay (not great) at multiple things (architecting, coding, communicating, keeping costs down, testing their stuff). Let them build and operate something from start to finish without reviewing. Judge it by how well their produce works.
