I believe there is a difference between an open source framework and a product. You would still have to manage and scale your infra, build the integration layer around it to make it accessible where your teams are, fix bugs etc... I am not saying that build is always the bad choice, but the tradeoff did not disappear imo

  I’m newer to knowing and caring about what YC does at all in terms of the companies it funds. The fact that this is YC makes me think the org has forfeited any sense of “taste” at all. Complete scattershot from people who have money to scatter I guess.

They increased batch size to scale (as context for the "stopped doing things that don't scale" comment) https://www.startupschool.org/ https://www.startupschool.org/
