@david_epstein: Hedy Lamarr and George Antheil weren’t engineers, but they helped create the technology behind Wi-Fi because they crossed disciplinary boundaries. That pattern shows up everywhere. Top performers do not just specialize. They connect ideas across domains. Range is not a distraction. It is an advantage. (If you’re interested in more, I wrote an entire book about this. It’s called RANGE: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World.)
