I'm a bit confused. Typical office hours at YC are surely not public. I presume these were made public as an example. I recall PG did this and even accepted a startup into YC based on a short conversation. Why is this bad?

it's definitely not bad. there should be public office hours at startup school that we can all learn from. however, I argue the format can be changed so it's more professional.
