Would you really want someone working for you who wasn't good enough not to get caught?

Get real.
Hackers attempt to exert influance over complex systems designed (often) to hinder them from doing just that. Within that 'game' there are ALWAYS so many unknowns that skill does little more than weigh the outcome of any given skirmish.
Given that, it becomes fairly clear that the distinguishing difference between eg. Hacker M and Hacker P becomes, for the purpose of this discussion, luck.
And so the argument is: should luck influence job/salary/peer respect yada yada yada ......
No, but don't it always? The only way to turn the argument is to decree that all hacking should be legal, patently absurd.
Get over, the risk is the price you pay.
