Venture capital is rocket fuel. It's not useful if you're not building a rocket. And VCs only really want to give rocket fuel to rocket builders, anyway. Regardless, rocket fuel is dangerous and difficult to handle properly.
VCs will be angry if you end up burning that rocket fuel building a car or a plane instead of a rocket, no matter how awesome the car or plane that you built is, because they promised *their* investors (LPs) that they would only invest in rockets.
But if you've clearly already built a rocket (perhaps after years of bootstrapping), and it's now obvious that you can reach orbit -- if only you had enough fuel -- then venture capital, err rocket fuel, might make sense.
