You have it wrong. You confusing Bill with Daniel Kottke. Kottke was the one that took over the work Job's sister was doing for cheaper. Not Hernandez.
Hernandez brought this to table,
"When it came to computers and electronics, few people knew the workings of Wozniak's mind better than Fernandez. ... In order to make the Apple II a buildable product, Apple needed a full technical readout of all the component parts, so that's what Holt assigned to Fernandez. "When Woz designed something, most of the design was in his head," said Fernandez. "The only documentation he needed was a few pages of notes and sketches to remind him of the overall architecture and any tricky parts. What the company needed was a complete schematic showing all the components and exactly how they were wired together." ... Fernandez said, "I drew the first complete schematic of the Apple II, working from a few xeroxed pages of Woz's notes written on graph paper. Having worked with Woz before... this was a straightforward [but] painstaking task. In my opinion, it was a beautiful schematic: logical, clear, easy to determine the relationships between components, and easy to follow the data and logic flows." It worked. The machine got built. History was made."
That sounds like a key player to me. With the fact that he brought them together so Apple could even have a chance to exist, it is definitely worthy of stock options. Woz rightfully recognized that, and Jobs didn't. A poor showing on Jobs part regardless of whatever subsequent life growth he went through to be a hero of Apple fanboys far and wide.
