Your experience is much more representative and more likely to succeed. Noting that there is a shortage of Italian restaurants or exploitation of a scaling problem in advertising and so on is how most successful companies get built.
More deeply, it is a strange incoherence: "only disruptive companies are successful" leaves you wondering what there'd be to dirupt, since everyone else went bankrupt years ago.
