The obvious cynicism aside, what you said doesn’t really contradict point #1. All those responsibilities can be taken by any IC in pre-seed/seed startups (except the wrongly stated “most important person on the company”).

Sure, but then that IC, if executing correctly should just leave and found their own startup. And true, sales/building the right thing is often #1.

This is like saying that every successful product manager should go found their own startup, which, come to think of it, fair enough.
