Hours spent working is not the same as productivity.

Twice as many people assigned to a project does not double productivity either.

I could go on...

Did you know that nine women can deliver one baby in just one month?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 6 months ago

Yes, and if 30 people can sing a symphony in 2 hours, imagine what 120 people could do.

One woman can deliver a baby in an hour, if she's a doctor or a midwife.

Why couldn’t 9 women deliver a baby in one month? That’s perfectly reasonable. Put the baby in a vehicle. Drive. Maybe stop at some hotels or just sleep in the vehicle with all 9 women. Then eventually you reach your destination in 1 month. Deliver baby. Profit.

Yup! Gotta count for the amount of work done too. Probably several other factors too, like skill experience, and quality of work.
