Isn't that the whole VC model? 1 big success pays for 99 failures? I think it's more about what could happen if one blows up, than about how big the chance is that it will.

I very much agree with your first part, and slow software make me physically uncomfortable sometimes. But I think you overestimate your last point. Can you name examples of software that could (partly) be recreated faster as a side project?

More programmers == more code, more code == more bad code. But that's probably not the direction you wanted to go...

0.001% of the world is about 75k people [1], there are about 2200 dollar billionaires [2], so only(!) ~3% of these people are billionaires. Not a real point to make, but I was wondering, and it might save someone else time. [1] https:&#x2F

A strange differences between OSes and Browsers, is that Browsers need/want to conform to standards. No-one expects Windows programs to work on macOS or Linux. But with the web that's different.
