Companies find it incredibly hard to reliably staff positions with hard-working generalists who operate autonomously and have high risk tolerances. This is not the modal employee, including at places which are justifiably proud of the skill/diligence/etc of their employees.
Startups are (by necessity) filled with generalists; big companies are filled with specialists. People underestimate how effective a generalist can be at things which are done by specialists. People underestimate how deep specialties can run. These are simultaneously true.
The hardest problem in B2C is distribution. The hardest problem in B2B is sales.
Your idea is not valuable, at all. All value is in the execution.
nobody serious will engage in contract review over an idea, and this will mark you as clueless.

“what if--hear me out--the regret students have about majoring in humanities stems not from the major itself but from a world we've made that is radically inhospitable to the kinds of values and ways of being the humanities (at their best) are oriented towards?”
