They can influence timing of information release; Whether delaying or expediting.

Just pointing out that even with the notice there is still room for shenanigans.

We can throw down "could" all over the place, anywhere, on any topic. Doesn't help the convo, I feel. Can people with leverage use it for ill gains? Definitely. But we can get religious about that so easily and should be careful. I think our discussion here is best served by going on what we know. But I very much agree Nvidia isn't some stalwart defender of clean practices.

I know you might respond "we know they have done iffy shit before, therefore worst interpretation is warranted here."

But, well, as I said - we can do that line of reasoning about anything, but our discussions kind of break down at that point - we're just throwing down impressions and "could be's".
