I agree they are betting on teams. Teams that are able to do "something". I guess I would prefer to see them take on a smaller number of teams and encourage them to go after bigger visions with more seed capital behind them. As I think about it more it seems to me that vision is really the problem, and maybe some of the teams have a vision that is limited by their experiences and surroundings.

Yep. The problem they may start running into with putting all the eggs in one basket with the team approach, is it can lead to a potential misconception about the program as a whole. Investors have favored YC companies because of the quality of the program and companies it is able to product. If the quality starts to go down with products, it hsa the potential to hurt better companies coming out of a cohort.
