I'm a bit confused in the metaphors but maybe the meaning mostly comes through :)

My thought on trying it again though is that IP rights could be tied up in the old entity.

Not sure if metaphors or autocorrect.

I never metaphor I didn’t like.

I'm sorry, I can't resist. What is a "fuzzy pumper" in this context?

Something you shove Play-Doh into and out come different shapes.

The Fuzzy Pumper Barber Shop. WTF happened to jingles? This one was dead and buried in my head until just now.

Edit: see the sibling comment, they gave a link. Brother need a little off the top.... and I never even had this or most of the crap whose jingles are still in my head.

I assume it means https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzing which in this context would be trying the idea with multiple input parameters until one works best. Kind of like neural networks.

I think they mean their brain.
