Just because lots of people are terrible doesn't mean this is laudable. One of the major roles of management is (or is supposed to be) to jump in and fill holes when needed.

In my opinion, a sane business starts out with the CEO/founders doing the actual work, and only after a great deal of expansion does it reach a point where upper management can think about being disconnected from it. I guess massive VC funding allows companies to skip straight to the second part.
