It's not that his contributions are "so great". It's just that they're contributions. I don't know anything about developing, but I'd imagine that when you find a capable Dev who has proven himself with years of work, you don't want to lose him as a Dev -- even if he isn't nearly as active as Uthgaard was.
And with regards to VP, I don't think there's any question that Xz was focusing on developing areas that interest him. But I don't think that's necessarily unreasonable.
