The Flames are no better at this than any other team - you try new guys in certain roles and hope it works. Sometimes it does, and sometimes it doesn't.

It is not an exact science.
You may be right but the article states CGY banked on reputation and intangibles (that may be what it is) but I do think CGY does have a more sophisticated (more resourced) department compared to the public domain. It reads to me like the public domain has the best info so it has to be intangibles etc. That is a position that lacks intellectual humility imo. Again, they could be correct teams will guard their decision making process vigorously and ambiguity is very good.

I don't agree that all teams have the same or are any better. It's all about resource allocation and some teams will be more into it than others consequently the output will be different.
