Absolutely. I get that you're coming from a good and useful place here! It's special pleading for me to say "HN is awash in dubious business advice but you should take Patrick's advice more seriously than most, while remembering that it's just outsider-looking-in advice". But that's my take!
Mostly I was just moved to comment because I got the vibe that Patrick was coming across to you as condescending, and I know he was working hard not to come across that way.
