      All of those other tasks are also done by workers. Imagine replacing the Owner/Worker arrangement with a Co-op. Then instead of the CEO taking 120x the salary of one of his workers unjustifiably, all of the workers would share the profit fairly evenly, and their wages would actually rise with their own collective productive capacity. Every bit of work they do would be rewarded, and it would encourage actually giving a shit.

      You are being needlessly obtuse

      The engineers designing the product and the one making the orders are also works. They are also being underpaid.

      Of course revenue is not the same as profit. Everyone knows that. But sometimes to spread a message effectively you have to summarize the thought. You can’t have in the image above all the taxes, costs and other shit where money needs to go to without it losing its point.
