Spot on. Moreover, technical cofounders that start as CTOs make terrible CTOs once the startup gets to 50, 100 people or larger.
The most successful stories I've seen are startups where the cofounder CTO moved to a technical role (chief architect, Devops or r&d) and hired a CTO. Or they hired a very strong VP of Eng and kept working in small startup mode.
