Founders need to be technical about something. The idea of a "non-technical" founder is nonsense. I have seen it and they were basically a VC with expensive friends just creating a job for social reason to get them out of the house.

Technical need not mean "code". It could be a medical expert working with a wide array of people to build something. Or a tax-expert. Or an employment expert etc.

Founder is what "product manager" should be. Instead it seems "product manager" is just some glue person at a large organization who is usually not great at accessing optionality and time and money costs.
