docs(demo): pitch is FIRST PERSON — solo founder, "I built this"

Sam is a solo founder and built Postdict alone — the pitch must say "I built,"
"I ported," "I already did it," never "we." For an early-stage solo founder that
is a strength (ships without a team = what investors bet on). Only remaining
"we" is "now we're handing debugging to AI agents" — there it means all of us as
an industry, not the company. Added delivery rule #4: "I built this" is a flex.
