ideas are worth exactly nothing and execution is worth everything.

there is 3rd component - money. You may have good idea and be executing it well. The VC has money, has your idea and in this situation hey have choice - your execution or to implement their own. Due to money asymmetry, even having somewhat worse execution, they may still do better than you.

Part of your pitch is making the case that you can do better than them, even when they have a money advantage.
