The business has more than one person working so there's adequate coverage.

We run some 10x4 but also a lot of 9x9. This is gonna leave some days with reduced coverage if it's one person but, well, we aren't one person. Everyone chooses a different day to be their "flex" day when they're off. Everything is covered.

Is it that companies are stuck thinking small?

Unless everyone had identical knowledge, there is not. Good luck getting your HR lead to fix a server error or your pipeline engineer to submit your quarterly financials.
