The reason you're a co-founder is because you take risks and are willing to push the limits of what's socially acceptable, and have face-to-face discussions about personally-difficult topics.

Most engineers want to "stay within the rules", which is why they get walked on.

(I'm not for one second saying you do that, personally)

True enough.

Pushing social boundaries is typically not practiced by engineers.
