Interesting, but am not sure it'll work from a marketing/founder-motivation perspective. There may be a segregation VCs can see, but it is not clear what effects it'll have on the company/founder's future efforts/commitment to the startup business.
The group-think effects are to be considered, before adopting this model. Am obviously not predicting anything, except perhaps this move might make the Black swans even more unpredictable.i.e: if you look at the Tableau of payoffs here(http://edge.org/conversation/the-fourth-quadrant-a-map-of-th...). this move can push investments from complex payoffs to very complex payoffs easily.
Personally, i am likely to even shoot for the YC Classic group deliberately or in rare optimistic moments, the Black Swan group.
