But GP is specifically talking to someone who isn’t in that bucket?

Well, less than 1% of lifeforms are born as humans but that doesn’t seem to scare people into not having babies.

Incorrect. In fact YC’s (i.e. the website you’re on) whole thesis is that it’s a lot easier to found a business successfully than most people imagine. Yeah, they’ve drifted from their roots a little but I think it’s been proved out.

The irony is killing me.

Can you explain how this doesn’t amount to saying “You seem like you’re brave. There’s another option: be a coward.”

You don’t seem to be proposing an alternative strategy with equivalent risk/reward dynamics, rather, it seems like what amounts to anathema to entrepreneurship.
