I'm careful about formulating an opinion on the topic, because I still don't understand what "deboosted" will mean in practice, but I don't think your evaluation of the situation is fair. I'm pretty close to an "antifan" of Musk, but I don't really think he is a fool, and I don't think it is news to him. Maybe the public believed he meant "an absolute freedom of speech" (did they? lol), but I don't think he was really meaning it at any point. After all, he knows that revenue comes from ads, and those who pay for ads have some power to influence the rules. It's not like Twitter is totalitarian just because Dorsey is a totalitarian guy by nature. It even seems that he kinda isn't. It's just the fact, that there are other powers that at certain level start being far more influential, than the CEOs opinion. And these powers tend to be quite totalitarian. Musk it just a populist. Not living up to his promises isn't a sign of short-sightedness. In fact, it seems to be working great for him so far. Not sure if it will with Twitter, but it did, and still does with Tesla, FWIW.
