In a perfect world...but, there is no evidence to suggest NP would take a downsized role in a partnership... he would have to go. I think NP is passionate and ruthless; in some cases this is good, in others, like playing by established rules and submitting for approvals, it is bad. Read the pleadings in the Pestell and current unjust enrichment lawsuits...I did. Very telling and the allegations (although just that...allegations) are consistent with one another regarding his behavior, as well as performance in CCs and PR videos.
