I agree with the core point and it's nice to have YC's vote of confidence on this issue. However:
1) While the value of fundraising is currently overrated, it's important to not go too far in the opposite direction and underrate it.
2) I would have liked to see an objective alternative proposed in this article.

Do you want to be profitable? To change the world? To be a unicorn? Whatever milestones correlate with that goal - that's what you go for.
