I don’t think that’s how it would work out since his conflict was very public knowledge before this point. He plausibly disclosed this to the board at some point before Poe launched and they kept him on. Large private VC backed companies also don’t always fall under the same rules as public entities. Generally there are shareholder thresholds (where insider/private shareholders count towards) that in turn cause some of the general Securities/board regulations to kick in.
