I suppose it's because the power is in question, and is being challenged in court by Benchmark as we speak.

I suppose it's because the power is in question, and is being challenged in court by Benchmark as we speak.
- JumpCrisscross 9y agoIndependent of social mores, I kind of see the strategic logic. If Benchmark defeats him in court, this power is null and the action undone. (The cost: he makes it slightly harder to do his next thing. Maybe.) If Benchmark fails, this is a solid backdoor power move. Between the binaries, this could influence Benchmark's willingness to settle (or sell). He’s doubling down.
