I think the creators also probably agree(d) that 13 people aren't needed to build this thing. However, to get funding you need to have a head count... Basically it's the fault of the bizarre SV venture capital funding model.

That is not how VC funding works at all. And in fact YC CEO Michael Seibel has said on many, many occasions that the number one reason YC companies fail is because they hire too many people, too quickly. VC companies push you to grow efficiently not just grow at any cost (unless of course you have unique unit economics).
