Alt account. This happened to a few companies in our batch too. It seems normal that 5-10% of companies game the character test. 100% of these companies basically end up with solo dictator CEO/founder and underperform. 100% of big companies from our batch had difficult founder heart to hearts on level ground, equal equity, and are still together.

Landing an opportunity or a windfall sometimes wakes up new extreme character traits that previously were either dormant or perceived as minor "idiosyncratic inconveniences". I've seen it happen before as well.
Ah, a classic: Mo' money, mo' problems.
It constantly surprises me how some % of people I know will change completely if they suddenly land a lot of money or a hot girl
