Why is this a big news, didn't we already learn that most startups/companies fail and investors are just betting to find their next unicorn?

Builder.ai was also a "success" until someone double checked their books and discovered they were inflating their revenue by about 300%. Much to consider.

It's maybe a bit of a Theranos situation. Not your normal sincere effort that fails.
Are any of those companies profitable?
