I note at no point did you mention customers, or revenue. It's trivial to spending essentially unlimited sums of money building products no-one wants - I've seen it done with tends of dollars and millions of dollars. However, that has very little do to with building a successful startup - where at the end of the day what matters is customers and revenue, not lines of code.
