except they don't? You could choose to not buy 20 chairs and... get 1 engineer for a couple months?

Meanwhile you have things like ad campaigns that have "unlimited" budgets. Hell, there's tripling staff size in a year without some matching revenue growth!

Chairs don't kill startups.

Sure they do. Maybe not on their own, but wasteful spending has killed plenty of startups.
