1. What are you basing this answer on? 2. If you don't want to meet their expectations, what can they actually do?

1. Hundreds of pitch meetings with VCs. Plus they are pretty open about their expectations.

2. Fire you. Sue you for fraud. Talk badly about you in the media. Not saying they would, but there is a lot a deep pocketed VC could do to make your life miserable. It's generally a bad idea to lie to your investors. :)
