- probably_wrong 2y agoYes. But AFAIK the official reason for the breakup was "we wanted him to pick a lane" and not "we disagreed with his defintion of the word 'open'". I cannot say whether YC changed their mind because I don't know what their mind is. Therefore I commented with the hope of an official answer.
