I am sorry that you have missed the point.

Of course I want competence. My comment was clear that finding someone trainable was preferable to accepting an already competent person who is deficient in character. I would not propose base incompetence is better than competence as a rule.

Who do prefer doing your heart surgery, a skilled doctor with a history of embezzlement and chronic shoplifting

Would you trust him not to embezzle and shoplift your heart for a richie needing a transplant?

We were sailing along on Moonlight Bay
We could hear the voices ringing
They seemed to say
"You have stolen her heart" (You have stolen her heart)
"Now don't go 'way"
As we sang love's old sweet song on Moonlight Bay
(Sailing through the moonlight on Moonlight Bay)
Moonlight Bay
