It's a story about a human relationship. I think that co-worker relationships can get complicated (and deep), with co-founder relationships being a lot more intense.
To be fair, there are a lot of other working scenarios, where you can have similar types of relationships, like military duty, police, firefighters, etc.
In the US, men can be discouraged from talking about these kinds of relationships, but we have them. They are deep and wide. We often mask them behind bravado.
I have a number of friends that are/were in the police and fire service in New York. I also had an employee whose sister was killed in the towers during 9/11.
The firefighters were hit the hardest. Many of them continue to have deep depressions, even this many years later, in August and September.
