It's also an example of when someone with passion is not alienated from the fruits of their labor.

You'll never be able to get an engineer to care about a product as much when at the end of the day the only thing they have to show for it is a paycheck.

Lack of Ownership of the production of your labor is a major problem with motivation in wage labor systems. Especially ones that depend on creativity and problem solving.
