What does surprise me though is that this fellow seems to be the exemplar of a company lifer, to quote TFA:
"My wife resided in Northern California while I was based in Los Angeles; with no children at home and very little social life, I often spent seven days a week onsite at SpaceX, putting in 10-12 hours almost daily. I knew no one there who worked more hours than I did. Later, during Covid, I was still working onsite and traveling for business while many other engineers worked remotely. I was quite hardcore."
Up until one injury and a short absence for surgery and recovery. And boy howdy did things change after that.
