However, if we do not match names with salaries, that will diminish transparency, since the five highest earners in an organization are not necessarily known. You cannot make a judgment and know whether it is founded or not. You referred to a surgeon or an orchestra conductor, but if you only indicate who the top five earners are who make over $100,000, people might ask questions. You might identify three people, that would be logical, but what about the fourth and fifth? There would remain many unanswered questions.
