Partly satirical - They need to invigorate the talent pool from the top down, new ideas and new management - and keep the good old techies and managers and weed out the bad ones and move them away from the fast creation track.
The British system that started WW1 carried on to WW2. The Germans foresaw the Lightning War - Blitzkreig

Hitler was no warrior, or strategist, or general - he was a populist, a rabble rouser - didn't the USA just get rid of one of those?
Had Hitler given his generals the keys and said win this war.
They would have done so.
They would have destroyed the RAF and airplane industry on the ground and invaded and taken the UK before the USA entered. Then they could have carved up Europe with Russia as well as the middle east and wire netted the Mediterranean against subs and ships and allow who they like. The UK fleet large as it was would have to flee to other ports or surrender. Then what would the USA do? They would see a fortress europe. Would stalin invade, or digest the meat hitler had given him while Hitler grabbed the middle east oil.
At this time Russian oil was unknown.
The generals would not let the Jews be killed - they are our best instrument makers and physicists, so no Holocaust.
Even Hitlers own officers waned him killed.
I am sure glad he ran their war into the ground with his bed strategies and diplomacy.
It’s easy to find a way to win something in hindsight with perfect information, the trick is to make the correct decisions at the time with imperfect information.
Saying “Hitler would have won if he did this” is a total bias of hindsight. It also ignores the fact that if Hitler was behaving differently, the allies would have responded differently.

I for one am glad he lost

Hitler sat in prison before they overthrew government.
