Yes yes, clearly there are points in time where there is a real entity that exists as a company. But in the context of "can I lose all this?" where you are a founder building something, you don't just not have control, you don't have anything when you are dependent on future investment.

I would argue that _every_ company needs to be worried about the question "can I lose all this?"
Even a company that is fully owned, with a sustainable and profitable business model, needs to ask the question "can I lose all this?" every day.
If the metric for "you don't have a real company" is you could potentially lose it, then nobody has a real company.
