True RE FB. Negativity is a draw. Fear and anxiety are a draw.
I don’t think going to the company and sharing some basic, honest rid bits is about pumping the price. He knows that won’t work and he’s a professional.
I think rather he probably did want to assess as best he could the situation and he came out positive. I think like any of us, he sees the anxieties and shared the most harmless and basic details and there are some who clearly want him to shut up.
