I think I agree. I don't believe a startup can work if the focus is on equity grabbing or if any agreement leaves one founder feeling less committed to the project than the other. A sense of ownership is one of the big motivators that helps you to fall in love and commit to an idea. So if there's something on paper that makes it like the idea is less yours than the other co-founder, I think it will cause less commitment as a result.

Better to own less of successful company than all of nothing.
