I think the real factor is control. Does Paul Graham really seem like the guy who would want a boss if he could avoid it?

  Well, he _did_ just get married.

  Good point; also, investors want some kind of chance or indication that the company will exit. I can't imagine that's planned for YC. In any case, I'll take your word for it as you definitely know Paul better than I do. ;)
