... only that in 2018, it's anything but $100k. New grads would scoff at that; they're easily clearing $200k if not more[1]

And I wholeheartedly agree with your statement. YC's stance is convenient since they have a vested interest in getting talent for your startup. I see it as more desperation in the face of the current reality that most people can comfortably earn for their future while working at a big co and then choose to move to a startup (in whatever capacity) further down the line once they're more "woke" so to speak.
