when a person is investing on a shitty / vanilla idea they would obviously prefer to secure their investments. What wrong in that?
When a home loan is taken, bank check everything , want the person's wife to be a coborrower, need to prove networth enough to cover the loan. And last we first pay the interest and then the principal. IF bank for lending secure loan can ask for this much security, why would a VC not take steps, knowing very well that the founder will scam them of some of the money they invest.

have seen this with a close friend. he was given money and pushed to get a cofounder. if you can do it solo, best option

It does make logical sense to have a backup CEO if the founder ducks up and makes bad decisions. But same role can be fulfilled by CFO or CTO. With a co-founder there's a chance that person will listen to VC (VC ka chamcha) first and implement his decision over the main founder. Best to have a strong leadership team at the start itself by your own choice.
