Calling this a checklist is probably confusing. It's better described as a list of answers you should obtain.
For example "Has a co-founder stepped down?". A single yes or no answer doesn't tell you much. But an answer like "Yes, we had two technical co-founders who fundamentally disagreed on technical strategy" should be explored. Why did the disagree? What was the ongoing impact?
