I don't see how the decision about hiring a technical staffer is
"cluttered" by the fact that we have jobs we need the technical staff
to do... if there weren't such jobs, we wouldn't be hiring someone to
do them.

Well, Mike has explained the current position now, so we don't need the labour the hypotheticals. I only wish I had the technical chops to be reassured.
