Perhaps that's true, but my sample does indeed include quite a number of startups whose stack is built on .NET. Their engineers are usually much less experienced (and are often lacking theoretical foundations. E.g. they know how to use MS tools without knowing how stuff actually works) than those of typical SV startups.
I'm sure there are good .NET engineers out there, but hiring/finding them is more like finding a needle in the haystack.
