I'm glad they don't blame you. But what bothered me so much about what you did was that you were the leader of that group. You'd recruited them as cofounders to apply to YC with. IIRC you were the CEO. So it was like an officer deserting his men, not just one of three guys dropping out of a three person startup.

It was far from an easy decision and I never felt great about it. This is fair criticism and I accept it. However, I don't feel the same way about your original response. The side project wasn't mine to share, and calling it "treacherous" takes it way too far.
