In the theoretical sense, yes. The usage in the here is much softer and less strict, not like in finance. I wouldn't get too caught up on the casual usage.
The way I've seen the word used in startups is more akin to "Tim Ferriss style" geo-arbitrage.

- tw1010 7y agoIn what sense is geo-arbitrage associated to Tim Ferriss for you? Genuinely curious. I've listened to a lot of his podcasts but can't recall that ever really coming up.
- tedmiston 7y agoThis isn't particular to me, but he's frequently cited for popularizing the term. You can see on Google Trends that it took off in 2007-2008 after the publication of 4HWW, and that there are virtually no results for it prior to the book's publication.
