What if a non-technical co-founder bought the domain?

This is likely to happen, too. Parent comment is not being very wise here.

I also used GoDaddy to buy libre.fm back in 2009 because buying an fm domain was harder than it ought to be. I moved it to Gandi when I could, but that's because I have most other domains there.

Then it probably means the technical people didn't have much say in this.

What are you trying to say here? Domain purchases often happen before there are any technical people at all. It's not about who had a say.
