At one startup I worked at, most of the developers were very young and had their first job, nevermind first job with stock options as part of compensation.

When it came time for a round of financing, I was leading a team meeting when the subject of dilution came up: "Are we being screwed?" And I had to explain that a smaller percentage of a company with a higher valuation isn't "being screwed." and attendant to that we discussed cost of capital, classes of shares, preferences, ratchets, etc. You could see the light bulbs coming on as I explained.

Engineers are smart. If you explain to them that "good enough with the money we've got" will make them more money later, they are usually OK with deferring both money and correctness gratification.

Think of it as building empathy for "product owners" who might otherwise be dismissed as beancounters.
