This is perhaps,the weakness of an expert.

The knowledge,skill and the capacity to stick on to a work may lead to an overburden on him with continuous accumulation of work beyond a certain limit. Here his strength turned to as his weakness when he not adequately compensated for it and the benefit of his work reaped by extraneous persons not directly involved in the work.
