There is something like a project-zeitgeist fit (PZF) similar to product-market fit. You would not pull a frat-party prank at a funeral. You would not launch a moon mission in the middle of a big war. You would not probably not release a “Facebook is great!” hagiography now....

PZF I think has 2 key variables: scale and ‘grain’ A project can be too big or too small for its zeitgeist and have a with-the-grain mood or an against-the-grain mood. Projects succeed if they are the right size and with the grain.

Nay. Some projects succeed bc they go against the grain and break new ground

Yeah, but that’s a deliberate high-stakes contrarian bet that’s more likely to leave you broken and failed than land you a Peter Thiel outcome. Against the grain takes deep private knowledge behind the bet
