> There's also the possibility of the Twitter Board's incompetence

Just because you don't know their names and aren't shitposting on social media they are not incompetent.
They managed to screw Musk over, they basically looked at macroeconomics, regrouped after the initial no and sold Twitter to Musk at the very top of a 13 year old bubble in the making.
If you look at Musk carrer each and every time he sold onto bigger fools. Compaq, Ebay and of course all the equity raises of his overvalued businesses.
Twitter board managed to screw him over and demonstrate that only idiots don't change their minds, all in one swoop.
They have the upper hand now.
If everything goes as it should this would be like Trump election loss. Meaning a defeat that makes it so that you don't hear from a guy for a long time. A severe wound and an existential threat to the ego.
Oddly however, the other counterfactual of Musk being incompetent did not come up. This is after all, a person that paid the SEC $40m and has to have a company lawyer review what he tweets about Tesla.
He has autonomy into buying the absolute top of the 13 year bubble. Locking the purchase price at t minus 4/6 months. In 4/6 months when the acquisition is completed the S&P could be at 3210 and he'd have paid 54.20/share.
Or even sub 3000 if inflation becomes deeply entrenched in the economy.
If it gives him a cover story to sell $TSLA shares when that company is valued more than the next ten automakers put together, he’s at least getting a bit diversification and is winning on that side while losing on the Twitter side.

We can only hope.
