Such people exist, I've worked with them, and that was all good. In the beginning it did sometimes take lengthy discussion why some features couldn't 'just' be implemnted but for the rest the main problem I had was getting into a 'me alone on an island and I'm the king' state leading to less self-critique and being stuck with old tools while better stuff is available. But nothing that cannot be fixed by keeping an open mind and reading around on the internet on the tech used.
Obviously if your co-founders don't quite fall in this category, yeah, running might still be the better option.
