He started the biggest GPU company and ran it successfully for three decades?

Right, but then he resigned. So the question on all our minds is if NVIDIA should be entirely written off since losing Jensen's irreplicable talent, or if some of those skills are transferable.

Since he apparently also arranged the company so it revolved around him and no one else was in a central position to know cross silo information, how would those skills transfer?

As a shareholder I want a leader who knows how to let other people run the company also, so it doesn’t die with them. (Eventually we’re all headed there, right so…)

I feel like your argument is just "Jensen Huang was Nvidia, and without him the company is doomed", and that's a very strong claim that needs a lot more explanation, because it's certainly not an argument that any shareholder is interested in considering when the company continues to exist, its products remain important and in-demand, and there's a CEO vacancy to fill.

What skills, specifically? I can't imagine he's the only one who knows how to set up an incomprehensible corporate structure, nor do I think that's what people value about NVIDIA.

Maybe not entirely, but just partially written off?
