Good points. I'd add: There is a good chance that HN users that read your post are not your demographic; it is made of of a mix of tech entrepreneurs (people that don't have a company but wish they did, or 1-2 person company CEO/CTO) and other IT professionals/developers. This may be a place to get helpful critical feedback from a technical and small tech business sense, but is not a good indicator of what others outside that realm think.
