As a fact I know 10+ European citizens that have had no problem coming to the US to live and work... you're a techie, we both know anecdotes are not data.

No one challenges that US visas are difficult at times to get. But if it was such an issue, I've gotta ask -- how is your software company's offering and positioning so unique that only you could manage operations from the US?

Also, to note, B1/B2 visas are for "temporary" visits for work or pleasure. There were multiple EB-* visas for permanent relocation. Even so, B1 visas are granted by the millions and are valid for Europeans for 10 years...

Regarding your second point, why should he delegate that critical task to someone he hasn't worked with extensively before?

Why should he prove someone else couldn't do that job? They probably could, but he can do it better and it's his money/equity after all.
