There definitely is. The question is whether a free million dollars would be enough to compensate or not.

It's interesting we're even unsure of that. It means we're at least considering the possibility that merely being in the Valley is worth a million dollars to an early stage startup.

Close, but not quite -- we're considering whether staying in the Valley is worth a million dollars. It might be that being in the Valley is worth far less than staying in the Valley simply because moving sucks so much... even if you're not "tied down", it's still a couple weeks of packing/travelling/looking for an apartment/unpacking/figuring out your way around a new city/etc which could be spent coding.
