Call a brand new business a startup. Hell, just drop the term and call it a new business. Call a failure a failure. I don't see why we have to load these terms so much or why people insist on pushing their own preconceptions. People like to bicker about whether it's a startup if it accepts funding, where the funding comes from and how ownership is established, what kind of background the founders have and how long their "runway" is, whether it's set up for an exit or for long term operation... it's ridiculous. I think the implication is that we've overloaded this term and a few others when we're talking about many different things in many different contexts but can't be bothered to clarify what we're talking about, so hey, what I see as a startup is pretty specific, but I'm not actually going to tell you what I mean (despite knowing I'm bringing serious bias to the term), so I'm just gonna throw that term around and disparage anyone with a different interpretation. If you define "startup" as very early stage, fine. Why would you use it as an insult for something that's not? Why wouldn't you just say "no, you're just NOT a startup" and ask what the business model is and why they aren't profitable?
