Technically, all journalism pieces on successful businesses are survivorship bias. No one writes and reads about the business that failed to find PMF.

And that’s the problem. You find the same traits they claim that made them successful by those who failed. Cherrypicking the winners creates a false reasoning of success.

How many readers don’t know that? And how many fall for the false reasoning of those success stories?

You are assuming most readers are dumb. I do not have that assumption.
