Of course you're right that the advice is for YC startups, that ultimately benefit YC. And, I don't see how YC could even get data on how well this advice works for non-start ups.
But I think it is sensible advice for non-start-ups. Just wish I had some data to back that up...
For example, I think going for a few customers you really help with an urgent problem works better than many customers that you somewhat help.
