I don't see nothing wrong with Dan taking on new projects. He's just way too good at designing new systems to be just maintaining one project.
I've heard Jordan Peterson in some video say once that liberal people tend to start companies and conservative people tend to run them. Or something like that. Either way it makes sense to me that some people are just way better at creating new things than maintaining them.
Btw Charles jumps around also, maybe even more.
