This is good advice but forgets that people are part of how long time something will take as well. If it's one engineer, it'll probably take $estimation * π, but if it's two engineers, you probably need to double that. If it's three, triple it. New calculation should be something like "($estimation * π) * $peopleWorkingOnSameThing". Communication overhead and mistakes should not be underestimated.

Wait, so you are saying that the net positive effect of adding an extra engineer is zero?

Yes, more engineers working on the same problem = slower time to actually releasing anything. Unless you can find a way to divide the task into parts that don't impede the others, adding more people will make things take longer time.
