what % of YCs value comes from network effects (including cohort, alumni, and brand)?
You would get different results asking alumni vs non-alumni. People who don't know YC think it's all about the brand. Alumni know there's a reason it has that brand.

Many people do not know that the main value comes from Batching. It is extremely effective. We tried it in games and 1 mln copies sold later are still pleasantly surprised. It just works.

What do you mean by batching? Having cohorts of startup getting coached together? How does that apply to games, if so.

my question was intended to be less focused on brand and more on the value of cohorts/alumni nfx (which is my outsider view of how most yc value is generated) as a proxy for understanding how much value is generated in universities by network effects vs explicit learnings
