How does something like this get accepted into YC? I get the whole "bundling and unbundling" thing, but this is just one Meetup group with its own website.

I would look at it more like a Meetup competitor that’s making a bet on segmenting in a totally different way (age instead of interest).

All startups start by focusing on a small segment of the addressable market. That’s not a weakness.

But you can create a meetup group based on age. I guess this is about positioning rather than the product.
You can create a web site in Microsoft Word. But it will never be the go-to product for that. Other products do it better.
