one repeat founder can create a great MVP in a month by
locking himself in a closet.
But can he create a startup by himself? A viable one?
Sure, he's got a better chance if it's his 2nd or 3rd or nth time around... but even so, you have to have feedback at some point... you probably can't literally (except in rare cases) be a true "one person startup." Even if the other people aren't founders there are still most likely going to be other people involved.
