I worked recently at a startup where the product was a shambling, swelling mass of features, implicitly designed to obscure its missing core value proposition to both investors and to the founders. There is definitely a difference in the process; perhaps not a meaningful difference in the outcome, which for those invested in the company is impotence, toxicity, despair, etc.
