Having worked in a startup which eventually went on to become an unicorn (I left very early), I can attest to this personally. As a company becomes more successful, the narrative portrayed in media changes to present a good inspirational story - it never presents the countless challenges which eventually leads to its success.

It just sounds better, and makes for a better book deal, to claim immense powers of foresight coupled with devastatingly effective business acumen.
