Very helpful - Like that first article as well, thank you. I wasn't attempting to bash the lean movement, though I have found it more difficult to implement with my own startup than I'd thought (emotions / fears find their way into the equation, spurring the batch death spiral). I just wanted to point out that there were other factors that will drive success now that the "secret" is out. Thanks again, and hopefully I can minimize the lessons I learn painfully.
