admit the competition may have done something interesting?
point out there are things to learn from this?
suggest that it would take the company’s best efforts, but that it could do better?
you don’t have to shit on the other team to say your team can be the best.

But it’s going to be a fun journey. “ 1: they admit that having Apple dip into a category validates it 2: the “fun” is a euphemism for - we need to get our s@!t together quick, expect some all nighters
