One reason nontechnical founders have a higher failure rate is simply that they have to pay one more programmer's salary.

If value margin is that thin that business not worth building anyway
That is so wrong. There are plenty of startups where the evolutionary bottleneck is less than a programmer's salary wide. E.g Airbnb.

And often it's not just one programmer but a dozen esp if founders have no tech experience as they tend to hire unnecessarily..

I'll take it, that programmers salary is $500k? Still in favour of balanced teams though.

it is so much more wrong to claim paying one more engineering salary leads to a higher failure rate, irresponsible to followers

Early days, any salary may increase failure rate. Irresponsible to ignore that how you spend $ may affect startup outcome.
