Ah. That makes sense as a strategy for YCombinator. If you fund the energetic ones at YCombinator's minimal level, they either succeed fast or fail fast. If they fail fast, they're quickly and cheaply flushed and require no further attention. The headache for VC firms is the company that takes forever to slowly make their thing work. Or the zombie that has reached breakeven but will never take off. Those require too much ongoing management attention.
