I'm dissapointed that YC isn't more focused on teaching strategy - how to attack an entrenched competitor by being different in a meaningful way. Southwest is one of the great strategy stories of all time. Touch of Modern may be hard working decent folks, but they have no apparent strategy.

I understand the intent. You're hoping that New York Times picks this up and writes a trend piece. Yeah, I know, all is fair in love and war.

I just hate to see YC turn into a more self-righteous version of the Samwer brothers. At least the Samwers have the good taste to keep their public pronouncements to a minimum. I've never heard the Samwers claim to be victimized.
