Its to everyones advantage to let the world think the founders thought of everything. I say this as a founder: the contribution of founders is always overestimated.

Instead, we do everything possible to validate the founders belief. We dont just abandon the vision of the company at every turn.

So what does CTO mean, besides just "technical founder who really cant manage anyone?" Platform selection and technical design - if your business strategy is to create a low-burn, highly iterative lean startup, youd better be using foundational tools that make that easy rather than hard.
