Vibhu argues "we do more" by volume of programs, not by outcome quality. The absence of outcome data is notable — if the committee model were producing measurably better results, outcome data would be the strongest possible argument. Its absence suggests either (a) the data doesn't exist in a comparable form or (b) the committee model's outcomes aren't strong enough to be the headline argument. +**What I expected but didn't find:** Any comparison to market-based selection (Colosseum vs. MetaDAO), or any data on post-grant company performance rates.
