For me it's simple. Paul Graham is the guy with the money, the one that is "making it." I love Ted Dziuva, and for all of his humorous, scathingly accurate (most of the time) insight, he Ain't all that good a businessman.
So when it comes to picking apart shitty, business concept-less startups, Dziuva is THE man.
For all things business and big picture-ness PG is THE man.
The way I see it, people should rejoice because Ted says he will never seek funding from PG or anyone that looks like him. So one less person chasing those funds.
A true businessman and startup guy would never say "no" to funds. Ted did look a little naive right there.
