Can anyone explain what this actually means? It sounds like she's saying that taking a lower pay by 5x is too much to ask of her, but then "people and their families" doesn't make any sense, because its 1 person and 1 family. Thats not even getting into how true is may or may not be, or how its still a lot of money overall, even if its not compared to the market overall.

I read it as, "that's too big a discount to ask [qualified CEO candidates] and their families to commit to."

In other words: good luck finding a qualified person to run Mozilla.
