One of the points mentioned often by @sama is that founders give up too quickly. What advice did you get from your YC Partner on this conundrum of being cockroaches versus shutting down?

From the outside, it seems like the founder saw a bigger opportunity and decided to move on.

So, the primary motivation isn't shutting down this startup. The primary motivation is moving on to the next startup which they believe is a bigger opportunity.

Not too awesome for current employees: hope they are getting taken care of.
