Some of this is simply looking at the characteristics of companies that are more mature (eg. incorporated, trademarks) as a predictor of success.

Yes, in fact they use it as a data point.

So if you have a short techie name, an office in Menlo Park, and incorporate in DE, you are practically assured of success.
