I’ve worked at many startups and consulted at many more over the last 20 years. I’ve never seen 2 million lines of code happen that fast at a small startup.
15 devs putting out 400k LOC a year into the same codebase is not normal at all. I’ve never seen anything close to that kind of rate of growth across that number of people.
And 50 engineers is not even remotely close to a small startup. I have worked at a startup that had 50 engineers after a few years, but it was a multi billion dollar unicorn.
