The defense of "accents so strong you cannot understand" holds no water. It was an after thought. If that is right then PG has missed the obvious in his own data, since several high-quality YC startups have CEOs who speak American English with moderate accents. One of them is on the front page of Hacker News right now, in fact. So I don't think your claim is either likely or, given that you've offered zero evidence, fair. Amusingly, you condemn his clarification immediately after condemning him for not offering one.
