Good founders hire people better than they are themselves.
It's pretty rare to see that kind of effort be paid back my a cuckoo maneuver like this. You owe your job to this guy, have some decency.
Imagine if every start-up started firing founders because they hired people that are better at some element of the running of the company.
Also: if I were the CEO of this company and you came to me with your request to 'fire a founder' I'd most likely fire you and replace you with someone more aware of their place in the universe. It's not as if you got named to the board of directors and were given a majority share when you got your job.
You're lucky your CEO is either very diplomatic or a little lightweight.
