I don't understand the fascination people have with comparing how many hours a week they work. Like someone is going to applaud you for working 70+ hours a week? I really don't see how that should be important to anyone but you. IMHO, the proper definition of a startup should be a business that's starting up. It's fucking ludicrous to decide that there is only one kind of way to start a business that qualifies it as being a "startup". If you see it as a "slap in the face" that you're working 70+ hours and someone else isn't, the problem isn't them... it's you. Are you jealous that they're get more done in less time than you? Or perhaps jealous that they picked their business model better so that they don't have to do as much as you do? Or maybe you were hoping that somehow other people would be impressed with your "heroic", "macho" levels of work, when in reality, nobody cares how many hours you put in.
