YC has never taught "build it and they will come" – they give plenty of advice and encouragement to find customers and will add, er, kinetic energy if you're not actively on that. That's a huge focus.
This, however, not so much:
> "You basically need 1-2 full time staff doing nothing but content creation and social media outreach marketing"
If that's the way you're thinking, YC's going to try to change your mind, and if you don't want to change your mind about that, YC's probably not a good fit.
(I'm not speaking for YC here! just from my own experience as a founder, observer, HN mod)
