Chipotle, even after getting hammered in the recent past, has a market cap of 15.5 billion dollars. It's rare, but it's possible.

That's not the point. VCs are interested in quickly (5-7 years) getting to 15B in market cap, not 22 years.

Chipotle went public 13 years after it was founded at half a billion dollars in market cap. While not as flashy as some of the unicorns, that would still have been a pretty decent showing.
