Thank You. Upvoted (both here and on quora) That was a very interesting bunch of takeaways. I found them more interesting than the ones in the OP.

I wasn't there so I'm probably imagining things, but I'm getting the vibe that the VC/investor types were giving canned pop psychology 'MBA'/management consulting type advice like advice, where the hacker/founder folks sound more original (and useful).
