To me personally this is at once trite and also a point desperately worth making to the wider public. There's something about the story-telling nature of humanity that makes "that one thing" such a pervasive myth. The written word just doesn't do well at encapsulating the daily grind of thousands of tiny decisions that shape a product to slowly converge on success.

While a precious few products may in fact be a tinder box just waiting for TechCrunch to blow them up, I don't think you stand much chance of success if that's the standard you set for yourself.
