That's cool. Good for folks in that situation.

What about people with families or dependents that can't afford to uproot their life and relocate to SV?

Don't get me wrong, this is great, but it would be even better if it expanded to include additional circumstances.

Note that the two theories are very much compatible, in fact, yours could help explain GP's.

VCs don't want people with a life outside work.
