I’m afraid the whole piece is missing a framework like yours.

It looks very selectively at one successful category of enterprises and then generalizes this onto all.

But:

What about all those founder mode companies that went terribly wrong?

What about all the companies that function well in “non-founder” mode? Apple today is a perfect example.

I don’t think it’s about founder/non-founder either but about some underlying fundamental principles that PG hasn’t figured out yet.
