Better yet, attend my class on Strategic Design at the WRRF workshops on December 13th and I will personally explain to you why this isn't necessary.
I understand where you're coming from - I once had a similar mindset as well - luckily I had some good mentors knock some sense into me. We're fortunate to have some of the best mentors to learn from here in California - especially in the Silicon Valley.
