Yeah, that'll get me the job but it'll still have the same problem: Only getting paid to have knowledge of just one thing.

Companies don't hire generalists that can get a lot of different work done. They hire specialists that are like cogs in a machine. That way they're much easier to replace and a lot cheaper too.
