I really think you're the one who's being defensive.

Observing that we don't know enough to call the Panasonic settlement a win does not equate to calling it a loss. Or a draw. Or anything other than a pending question.

Best wishes,

It seems as tough you are saying that it is bashing to observe that "you can't tell whether to count [a settlement] as a win until you know at least some of the terms."

Have we reached a point where reserving judgment pending the development of adequate information is nefarious?

I don't see how Sinkman's post could be understood to question their commitment.

Yes. Reciprocals.

I think 1 yen equals 1.24 cents.

That is, 100 yen equal $1.24.

... you can't tell whether to count it as a win until you know at least some of the terms.
