This also how I read the story, they were ‘basically’ salesmen/marketing guys with good investor storytime. The hacking part was hacking together code on the plane before the meeting to rake in the cash?

Simply untrue. They were hacking in highschool for fun. Complete nerds. They were _also_ ruthless business people.
Most high school hackers and nerds don't become good professional coders.
