His writing style seems similar to Hunter Thompson’s - I wouldn’t read into it too deeply, exaggeration is the backbone. Personally I enjoy it.
As for the actual content, there’s a massive difference between customers dying to use your product and them telling you it’d be “neat”. People don’t buy “neat” products. This is why you talk money to them as soon as possible. No real surprise it didn’t work out for him, the incentives just aren’t there.
He could have prevented all this by reading the Mom Test - oh well, experience is the best teacher anyways.
