1/ Quick thought about teaching activities in the free agent world by analogy to academia. In academia most faculty enjoy teaching graduate courses and PhD seminars, but only a few enjoy teaching major undergrad “service” courses (like say Stats 101 or English 101).

2/ Why? Because grad+ courses massively benefit the teacher’s research. I designed and taught one such as a postdoc at Cornell back in 2006, and learned far more than I ever did as a student. Undergrad service courses otoh, mainly teach logistics/presentation/packaging skills
