Agreed. This is common sense, and is historically one of the main reasons why business travel exists. A caveat might be that "pure" software development jobs where the role is mostly to just sit and code probably have a smaller benefit. But for most early startups, such a job shouldn't really exist because there's so much more to do. I'd be interested to see the analysis done differently, comparing how people actually spend their time vs just where they spend it.
