Thank you. It's true, I have lots to contribute. It's why we are partners! But why cannot I give my information for him to read, in a video?

The video recording is only for one minute. Such a short time for communicating! We need every second. He is the most efficient.

If it was a computer algorithm, it would be stupid to use such a leaky channel, with much entropy. Why should we do the same in recording the video?

Because a YC application isn't a computer program: it's about people developing an idea. While the idea is important, the people behind that idea have a lot to do with whether or not that idea can be realized.
