I don't agree. I can deliver a good CRUD app quick and cheap -- 10-20k in 2 weeks -- because I've done it so many times.

I'm not bored of it. It pays the bills. I still learn stuff all the time.

Point is, you're right in the sense that you probably want people who have good domain knowledge. However, there's nothing special about technical founders without that.

I'd even say most times their skills at getting an app out quick and fast (and good) are probably not that great, which is important for startups.
