These are all good reasons, but they strike me as being much more valuable to a person that is new in the industry, rather than one with several years of experience.
I can certainly see the appeal for someone looking for experience, but I still don't see it for a seasoned professional.
To me it seems as the only valid dichotomy is between being a founder yourself or working as an employee in a more established (but still perhaps small) business.
- Met investors and learned about the entire investing process
- Got immersed in metrics/data-driven product development
- Had a ton of autonomy even as a non-senior developer.
- Made a name for myself in the local ecosystem.
- Got to spend my time developing a product I loved and believed in.
