I'm stealing "Polite disagree;"

My favorite way to disagree! (I tend to use it when it's "I see how a reasonable person could think that and think no less of you for saying it. Nonetheless and on reflection, I am a no here, and I feel it important enough to communicate the no and reason for the no explicitly.")

Founders need all the encouragement they can get, stating a startup is truly a "crazy" thing to do and we might as well get support along the way

Yes. In general, I have a lot of bones to pick with funding and software, but I acknowledge that getting funding at each stage is exhausting, grueling work, and so regardless of my opinions of the funding in general or specific, I always try to congratulate folks for securing it!

Social purpose and being weird are not mutually exclusive :)
