Altman founded Loopt.

Not sure how you can say he fell into the CEO position there.

Also at the time he was at YC it was a significantly smaller and less prestigious incubator.

Yea, impressive stuff. I'm sure that gave him a lot of experience that led to being one of the few "professional communicators who have reached the highest level of the craft".

That was not the point of that coment.

You act like he just mysteriously found himself in executive positions when every company he's headed for a significant duration was one he founded. If you didn't even know that then you obviously know very little about him and couldn't even be bothered to do any research at all. This is a simple wikipedia search. So why are you so bothered about someone you know nothing about ?
