Internal emails is always a big big random variable which can then spawn all sorts of unrelated lawsuits from discrimination, to regulatory fines, to executives' private life drama, etc... Given the NDAs that would apply to such discovery, were such information to exist and to become public, Musk would likely be imprisoned for contempt of court. Not simply fined. Imprisoned. And his lawyers would likely be suspended for a few months, if not disbarred. You don't mess with the courts, because they have the power to mess right back.

Have you met https://twitter.com/TechEmails https://twitter.com/TechEmails ? Musk doesn't need to leak emails. The discovery by the lawyer team alone is probably scary enough. There is a high chance that twitter will settle for XB. At this point, it is just free money for twitter. Imagine Musk acquires twitter and exposes all internal emails (well, he owns the company) and sue execs one by one for every little thing that is wrong. Execs are earning 10M/year. For these people, money is not an issue. Getting into a scandal is a huge issue.
