Does YC’s brand hurt it? I think you attract better on average founders when your brand is less prestiged and more counter-culture. Also, YC invested in Stripe but the Collisons did not do the YC curriculum. I suspect this is true for many of their more famous investments.

I think they also have a rep of funding only youngin's in their program. That's limiting.
I'm not sure if this guy actually went through the program or if he just invested, but he was 34 in 2014, which would be his YC class.https://techcrunch.com/2018/10/10/rippling/ …

34 is at the old end of young ;-)

If YC were doing its job, we'd have immortality by now.
