Oh, sure. I don't disagree. That's how I'd do it.
But my point is that even when I last took venture money, more than a decade ago, I had some questions about how much the goal of investors was to "help the company". With the way funding trends have changed, that's an even bigger question. Which would then force me to ask: how much sense does it make for me to be more invested in the long-term future of the company than the investors are?
Personally, my behavior wouldn't change. But the more investors are in it for their short-term interests, the more they should expect to attract founders who feel the same way.
