That's a very unnatural way to read the sentence.
Bill's role is at the board level these days. He's not actively involved in the day-to-day running of the company.
But a decision of this magnitude is, without a doubt, a board-level decision. And there, at the very highest level possible, Bill was a strong proponent, he says.
And somehow you read this as him not being fully behind it?
- aneth 15y agoYes, he's at the board level, so he has no need to qualify his statement and introduce ambiguity. If you take everyone, particularly people with great power, at the surface level of their language, you are missing most of the meaning. Indirect and qualified statements are usually that way for a reason. Read up on this - I'm sure you'll be fascinated.
