I understand what you're saying about unconstrained executive behavior at startups, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm referring specifically to whether they ran the business as a generic commodity business, where cost-cutting took precedence over innovation. For all their flaws and misbehaviors, I'll wager that the successful ones didn't.
