I get the impression that the success of a startup depends upon how much room is given for "constructive failures". By "room", I mean enough funding and a forgiving market.
Well, reaction time and being agile enough in general (like when pg talks about implementing a competitor's feature the night after a competitor announces it) also give you room. That can be institutionalized.
