I empathize with them, though. It is completely rational to limit the impact of lawsuits on your organization. If someone hands you a Get Out Of Jail Free card, you take it, no matter how good of a person you think you are.

I don't. I consider it to be morally objectionable to say "man, I really hate arbitration clauses as a customer" and to then turn around and say "well, I should impose arbitration clauses on my customers." Besides, limitation of risk is already possible in a variety of ways: insurance, company formation structure, and being reasonable with your customers. It is atrocious that a core feature of our constitution is so quick to be contracted away by people who are in the position to effect change.
This goes double for Y Combinator-enabled companies because they operate under the guise of being better for their people, their customers, and their industry than others.
