But huge, glaring exceptions can disprove a 'rule'. Risky? sure. Insane? These examples strongly indicate otherwise.

All start ups are risky, no? I don't know that adding more risk to an already risky venture doesn't classify as insane?

I probably agree with you though. Starting up is all about finding the right set of services to match the right set of needs...by any means possible.
