YC has actually become much later than it was originally, many companies going through YC already have a working prototype or even a fully launched product before they start on the YC program.

asking a prototype helps to understand how the team can execute. as far as i understand, the point is that the costs of having a prototype have reduced dramatically with all opensource and cloud hostings, and that's why investors gave money for YC, TS and SC. (imho as usual)
