I think this is a really good extension of the argument, and it matches my intuition too.
My sense is that what’s happening with growth is part of a broader pattern where EA orgs tend to underinvest in cross functional or ops type roles, especially when teams are small and budgets are tight. The points you raise about org size, founder experience, and constraints all feel very plausible, and I agree that fractional or shared service models could make a lot of sense here.
Thanks for being transparent about your involvement. I’d be very happy to connect and continue the conversation.
