Andrew, I know that is said tongue-in-cheek, but in reality the compatibility part is extremely important. I have been a part of, and witnessed, teams that melted down under the pressure of the event. It ruins friendships and is debilitating to the guys on the water. Jake's team has been through the fire and been tempered, so he may only have a academic idea of what can happen if personalities clash. The sailors or managers who build teams are responsible for laying the cornerstone.
