I'm genuinely asking why are we goaling on overtaking the most valuable companies in human history?

Startup advice, as i understand it, is about innovation: expanding the pie. I sound like a VC shill. Don't mean to be, i know it's riddled with rich people passing money around pretending like value is being created.

It's just I don't get what's so wrong with the HN crowd here trying to be better at building a successful company?

The most valuable companies are expected to be the largest, and, as a result, the most inefficient hence the easiest to overtake.
