I have a feeling that historically, we've always put high-growth companies on a pedestal. It's not something that is unique or novel to this particular time. The way which companies GET there (via VC) is novel, yes, but companies have stood the test of time and toiled quietly building great products before, and they continue to do so now.
The only reason you don't hear much about them isn't because we hype on high growth companies, but because slow careful growth isn't sexy, that's all.
