See strategic capital is fuel. This framework isn’t pro-VC- it’s pro-intention. It helps founders think before they fund: - Do you even need capital? - Is the cost of funding worth the dilution? - Can you build without it? - Should you? Many great companies should never raise. But for the ones who do - clarity > capital. “Optionality” - so founders choose funding, not chase it.
