Fewer founders means fewer people with expenses that the business needs to support (even if those expenses are the bare minimum: food, shelter, etc). Of course

Fewer founders means fewer people with expenses that the business needs to support (even if those expenses are the bare minimum: food, shelter, etc). Of course, I think what that assumes is that one person could launch a product as quickly as a team. It's easy to imagine a product being complex enough that a team could launch it before a solo founder would. But ignoring that.. it's clearly faster/easier to build a business to support a single person than multiple people.
