As a startup founder, I wish every startup can be part of YC. But at the same time, I hope YC does not end up investing ALL promising startups (which become big later) -- because if that is the case, it will be a disaster for any other startups that fail to get in YC, the unfundable signal is way too strong to investors.
In that sense, I appreciate companies like Buffer, Uber/Lyft etc.
