The author is a founder of GitHub, he could raise $17m for “git but it’s called pit and a repository is a hole and committing code is called burying it” if he wanted to, investors care about pedigree.

pedigree is a great word here and being upfront about it (if true) would make for some fun VC slogans:

"We've replaced due diligence with a DNA test."

"No mutts, no miracles. Three generations of wealth or GTFO."

"Your bloodline is fine. Don't fret the cap table."

"You forgot to attach the pitch deck, but we really like your family crest."
