I read about this in Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking Slow and Fast" where this was listed under possible "suvivorship biases" i.e. we draw conclusions from data that survives but forget about the unseen data. For example, we read stories about how someone with a simple startup idea became a millionaire but never hear about those who tried and failed hence creating a biased view on startups.
