Well expressed opinion.
My mind just keeps coming back to Hargrove and Fowler's ages. These guys are sucesses already; they don't need 5-10 more years of headaches trying to turning Titan into another ISRG (experiencing every growing pain and battle). I said it from my first post on this board. ISRG broke the barrier, created the market, and will remain the powerhouse, now especially if they start going small platform. I don't think these guys have the energy for those battles, or even want them. Hell, they are one major health issue from being effectively retired.
I'd say they get more personal satisfaction by getting this baby "on the shelves" and being used. They make a fortune for their heirs to boot. My guess is that Paige's raise also came with a long-term contract too. Insurance in case Hargrove leaves the picture after a buyout.
I'd say they will be more and more happy to sell with every passing month. They certainly could be positioning for that now. They owe us retail investors nothing, in terms of what we would rather have them do.
