The remarks about the Apex of the Vee as "religious cant supporting the Old
Guard are all well made. But, but, but we must remember that in the geese
migration case the older birds have better navigational and weather prediction
skills, so are indeed useful leaders. In the case of HMS Bounty, only Bligh
and Christian had the essential skill of celestial navigation so were
functional leaders by superior knowledge, and in this case, clearly not
character!!
