if one is after VC funding, one needs to show those VCs that there is some secret sauce which remains proprietary
IMO software/algorithmic moat is pretty impossible to keep.
Indeed.
That is, unless the situation is highly non-stationary (that is, algorithms and methods are modified fast without stopping; of course, a foom would be one such situation, but I can imagine a more pedestrian “rapid fire” evolution of methods which goes at a good clip, but does not accelerate beyond reason).
