I agree it would be interesting but it does assume there is such a thing as being "on to something" which could be separated from ability to execute.

A massive part of success is execution and a big part of that is being able to work out what you can achieve within whatever financial constraints exist.

I guess one potential way of generating some data might be to look for startups which were gaining significant traction but then ran out of cash?
