That is who I'm looking for.

If the odds of success are less than 10%, then it would seem to follow that the thoughts on success by single or several failure individuals would suffer from a similar bias as the survivors.

Basically, who actually kept trying long enough to disprove the hypothesis that's it's all about experimenting until you find something that works really well, and then growing it as fast as you can?

If you're lucky, perhaps you can roll the dice 10 times. With a 10% chance 10 failures wouldn't be too significant. Given a binomial distribution that's still p~=0.35.
