Sure, it's press-release vaguerise, but people say that stuff for a reason <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />It also didn't help that the example I mentioned followed a one word answer to the first question, and the first thing he said to the next question was "We're hitting the limits of what I'm allowed to talk about publicly."  It makes people wonder why they're reading the interview.Anyway, overall the interview was still pretty good and informative.</blockquote>
