It's all about cost versus benefit. Of course every startup wants designers who can code. And architect. And grill a perfect panini. And work for minimum wage. And, and, and. The list of wants is miles long. But finding someone with the exact specialties you want, for the price you can pay, is hard. Finding someone with a single specialty for your price is a lot easier. Especially if they are relatively inexperienced so far. If you find a jack-of-all-trades willing to work cheap, of course you should take them. But don't start thinking you -need- that. Work with what you can get.
