Exactly. There's a reason why the full description is "Jack of all trades, master of none"

    the full saying is "a jack of all trades, master of none is oft better than a master of one"

    You got it right. Its a complement when said in full.

    Because we shouldn't have masters, hierarchies are bad.

    That’s not really a hierarchy thing though.

    Just a measure of how skilled / experienced someone is, and how suitable it is for them to be teaching someone else.

    I think we need more people sharing their knowledge and we don’t need the blind leading the blind.
