Meta and/or OT: I simply don't believe public statements nor PR, any more.
I seem to recall prior FB comments on this (PR or senior executives) being: We're not doing a phone.
So... "strategic" and "protecting our interests" and "must maximize our value" and "timing" and... Lots of arguments for not giving a straight answer prior to this (even if that is "no comment").
However, with all the talk of "corporate personhood" being bandied about, these days, I'm going to choose to treat businesses that do this the same way I'd treat an individual that did so. You lied.
Why, then, should I believe anything else you're telling me?
Again, this is aside from the specific topic of this phone. Nonetheless, I find it pertinent.
