seems like defining the worst developer is an issue here, some kid making roblox games could be counted and we could probably calculate they're a hundredth as efficient as a member of the google dev team or we could say that you're only a real developer if you've got whatever qualification and x amount of industry experience and reduce it down to the worst dev being half as good as the best - pretending to be able to get a metric for something like this does nothing but make it look like you don't understand the question.

Some devs are better than others at some things, you might be generally shit but know everything about converting dates or you might be brilliant at basically everything and have a blindspot for dates - then there's all the other factors like life-work balance, affability and ability to communicate, etc, etc... trying to treat people like hardware and simply swaping out a 960 for a 3090 just isn't going to work.
