why not both?

the real reason he's filing the sec notice is the gas has run out of the bullshit bus. nobody believes his due diligence claims, the board just sent him a resounding vote of approval to buy, and the legal pain train of that comes with anymore of this childish foot dragging sideshow is pulling into the station.

I'd be stunned if he gets to walk off with the billion dollar penalty. too many financial guarantees and backings have been made, and musks had an SEC crosshair on him for years now. they know exactly what patent brand of bullshit he's peddling and have shown themselves more than willing in the past to take action.

musk can file all the notices he wants but i suspect hes about to get ready for the billionaires version of a shotgun wedding.
