You are looking at it the wrong way imo. It's like when developers build a product and only focus on the technical side and neglect/underestimate the sales side or when they buzz about the language used to build something. VC don't really care about the startup's product. Your pixel machine. That's a side effect. Growth. Exit. IPO. Those are the 3 words they want to hear.
