I love the spirit of this, but I'm not sure this reflects reality as well. There are some examples that come to mind (boom, openai), but I think many more examples that have a different impetus. The most common successful impetus i.m.o is "tinkering" Playing, solving something lightly, and realize it's taking off like crazy. I think this can be a better light to follow, because it removes the pressure of thinking of the excellent idea out of the bat. Just play, show stuff to users, and see where it grows. Examples of these kind of successes: Facebook, Instagram, Gmail, YCombinator, PG's first startup, etc
