The #1 thing an editor needs is to create a safe space for their creators to create...
...to know that they have a safe space to do art; to know that they will have a compassionate ear and a sharp eye when looking at their story; to know when push comes to shove their editor will be there to shield them as best they can.
That is the best way to get the best out of your best people.
Can you still get their best? Yeah, but you'll probably get their good enough. They'll probably complain about you (though they might even if they love you). They'll probably treat it as a job, instead of as art.

They definitely won't promote as hard b/c people promote things they love the hardest, and the stuff they made with people they trust and care about, even if they don't love them.
