As an old man I can tell you it doesn't work like that - the one with the biggest mouth gets the job because he knows how to blow smoke right up your arse.
It applies to politicians, car salesmen, Priests, influencer's and most everything else. No one goes far unless they know how to spin shit - it's the way it's always been.

The bloke who know his shit gets stuck in a position where knowing 'your shit' matters' - he's what makes the world go round, the others are just 'noise'.
