> The founder didn't do any market research ... before quitting their job

That was the entire point of the article (written by the founder). What was the point of this comment?

IMHO the point of the article is its title - and certainly, furthermore, the point made at the end:

“To succeed, an offering must create value for all entities involved in the exchange—target customers, the company, and its collaborators.”

I believe the point of this comment is 'do market research before quitting your job'. The author could have learned their presented points while operating this as a side project concurrent to their existing job.
