I see your point about growth, but I disagree over the term bootstrap. I interpret bootstrap to be about external investment. Its possible to have a high-growth company (a "startup"), that receives no investment, or receives investment by the founders.

Mailchimp is a fantastic example. Bootstrapped with 9 figure revenues and crazy profits. http://www.quora.com/MailChimp/How-much-revenue-is-MailChimp...
