I have worked for the public service and for private entities big and small, here and abroad and when it comes to the public service what I saw was that people genuinely think that:

1) the world can be simply divided into US and THEM,

2) that what they are working for the common good even when the interest that they are protecting is a private one mascaraed as a public one, and

3) that the routine into which they are immersed is there to stay unchallenged forever.

Again, from my personal experience I can tell you that big firms, specially the ones having a monopoly or that operate in a oligopoly tend to be full of inertia. For them the solution always tends to reside outside specially in the political sphere, where the deals to bring the money in are done.

Yes agreed BIG is usually bad for effiency

It was all the thing to get more branches to a business at one stage and in mine I got up to five at one time and realized that it was a time waster, conditions were different in each location plus the inevitable time wated meeting etc so I split them into five totally separate stand or fall on your own two feet, much beterIt woks for cities as well . IE Melbourne 100 km from one side to the other with fractured services tying to service the lot

From memory the Greeks had a limit that when a city reached certain point any more people had to start a new city

Interesting to listen to Elon Musk with his method of running a big business, very enlightening
