The poll isn't about you. A poll generally is about where a group of people stand at a given moment in time. There is nothing misleading about asking if someone currently works at a startup.

Oh, so it was asked without any intention whatsoever of drawing any conclusions that might be affected by the number of anomalies in that small sample? Do you know what the right thing is to do with extra information that you don't think affects the validity of a sample? Ignore it. There's no need to get on people's case for volunteering extra information just in case it would matter to someone interpreting it. The poll isn't about you either.
