I dont think the value of start-ups with a design co-founder gives us much more value than saying, designers are very beneficial for a product-oriented startup.

Im sure we can have similar calculations with value of startups with a single founder, with a business co-founder, startups that have their hackdays on friday ...

I don't want to marginalize design co-founders, I am looking for one for myself, but I dont like these sorts of conclusions and statistics

That's the simple point, you got it, we're saying yes they can be very beneficial for a product-oriented startup just like more engineering and business focused people are (you'd be surprised by how many people don't act like that)...then exploring stories about the value these people deliver... there's no conclusions, we put '?s'
