Your argument essentially boils down to 'anyone great at X should (eventually) also be great at Y'. I don't believe that and it seems like a difficult thing to persuade you of -- at least right now.
Also, think about the time component. Even if your viewpoint were true, there isn't always time in a startup to become proficient in a skill you don't yet have. If it were that easy, startups would be a lot simpler.

But isn't that pretty much the definition of IQ? A kind of "general intelligence quotient" which is broadly applicable to many different skills? E.g. I'd expect Stephen Hawking to be pretty good at chess if he ever decided to apply himself at it.
