The OP is asking for advice whether to shut down their 'successful' company. The parent is pointing out that there are other metrics.
They aren't commited to a high risk strategy. They may have planned it that way but that may because /everyone/ does it that way. What's wrong with putting other options on the table.

It's just a regular small business, and you're probably going to have to bootstrap, investors aren't interested in that type of company. There's nothing wrong with having a small business, I'm actually somewhat convinced they generate more user value, and can treat their employees better these days.

Versus any new company under the sun that can be sustainable.
