YC took a risk with a new division and then closed it when it didn't work. That's not a "bad look" at all.

  It's a bad look if it's "obviously why it didn't work"

    To be clear, my grandparent post is about how the two domains are obviously different. That's not the same as "obviously wouldn't work out"

    If you fail to do something hard, it’s easy to guess why; it was hard. But that doesn’t impute it was foolish to try.
