It seems fairly clear to me that this is the case. His misstep was political in nature, I think , or maybe the Chinese chip wagon train. But the affairs are neither relevant nor noteworthy except as an excuse for the resignation. NVIDIA is a strategic national asset at this point.

An alternate could be, that the entire goal of all of this was because the Chinese government wanted to remove a highly effective CEO, from producing what is now a worldwide grip on top level AI compute power.

You’re disagreeing with the person you’re responding to, btw.

Huh, it seems I’m agreeing with them to me? Am I losing it, at long last? Op says the affairs are parallel construction and I’m saying that I doubt that the affairs are the base motivation?

		Yeah, I don't see the disagreement either.

This is a high dimensional space :)

A: legality

B: morality

C: what the political power wants

D: what shareholders wants

E: what the "CIA" wants, which is influenced by A, B and C, and D but its own thing

...

Z: business consequences, the sum of all of the above

I'd suggesting a quick review of the potential "replacement CEO" candidates, and things get interesting.
