In that case some technical aspects needs rework... Currently O1 visa being a nonimmigrant visa have no path to PR/citizenship (unlike H1Bs) and need annual renewal. This make it unattractive to "who possess extraordinary ability".

You can apply for an EB-1A greencard or a national interest waiver green card while on an O1 visa.

You can also get an employer sponsored green card similarly to what you’d do if you were on an H-1B.
