Exploring the opposite: what do unfragile startups look like? I worked for one but the catch is it taking much longer, like decades, to grow to a unicorn, as it is run more like a business. Generally the growth is from reinvesting revenue not outside investors.

Haha very true — as a climber I relate 100%.
