Yes, exactly this. And since you aren't chummy with the VC, even if you had a business model, you would be rejected "because you don't have revenue" yet. Fuck that noise. The V in venture is supposed to mean you're supposed to take risks.

SV has lost its soul. A VC that respected tech nerds would see your technical idea, (maybe) discount the investment, and then get on the phone and help you find a business partner that will take you all the way (and give you first right of refusal on assholes).
