Unless of course you've bought into your own marketing and think yourself a disruptive genius.

To me this is just a wonderful object lesson in the naivete of so many SV "disruptors" who fail to understand Chesterton's Fence.

It's almost like a system that selects only for the best marketers (the elevator pitch and pitch deck) is terrible at finding people with a grounded worldview and an understanding of the market.
