Generally for a tech startup, I do think it can make sense to move. Plus, necessity is the mother of invention, Airbnb and Uber were both started because of how painful it can be to live in SF. What if the founders had been somewhere affordable with great public transportation?

They would have worked on something else, and someone else, preferably someone who doesn't believe in just snubbing labor laws, would have come up with the idea. Remember, Uber isn't a unique idea. There were at least 3 companies that came up with it around the same time.
