Yes, indeed: It highlights that it's a "role" that pretty much anyone could have filled if it hadn't happened to be Bezos that did.
And since discussion about compensation on this site usually centers around the ubiquity of potential fillers of roles -- "Amazon warehouse workers are paid shit because anyone can be an Amazon warehouse worker!" -- it also shows that Bezos' humongous windfall for more or less at random fulfilling this not so much more unique role is monumentally inequitable.

Hopefully that was what you set out to highlight?
