Is there greater danger in passing over a possibly competent startup with technical debt such as this, or greater danger in ignoring a potential sign?

Obviously it's not a 100% sign. Just a heuristic. One of many, I'd assume. But I can't fault someone for using one when the cost of a false positive so far outweighs the cost of a false negative.
