I just want to point out that trusting in someone's competency and leaving certain work for them as you think they are better suited for the work... that is just no Hierarchy.

Let's say, we have a man and a woman. They have babies and the babies seem to be able to fall asleep better to the song of the man's deeper voice. The woman decides that she will let her husband put the children to sleep if possible. Did the woman submit to the hierarchy and her husband, or is she just efficient?

Having a boss is a good indicator that it's a hierarchy though, friend ;-)

My boss (as in team leader, not employer) has earned the position by demonstrating better insight, and has the power to force me into tasks I disagree with. So yes it's a hierarchy, an ideal one in this case as the positions are assigned on merit, but even if it wasn't I'd still have the choice to submit to it, to avoid responsibilities or unpleasant tasks.

You are misunderstanding my point.

My point is that letting someone handle certain things and even listening to their advice is not hierarchical.

So the person written the comment doesn't need a hierarchy to let their coworker handle organisational tasks nor do they need it to listening to their coworker's advice.

So just because they like it that way, doesn't mean they like the hierarchy nor that they want it, but rather that they like some tasks more than others and acknowledge expertise.

I am not saying that there is no Hierarchy. I just don't think they want it, just because they like other elements in their cooperation.
