From LSE on proposed raising, page-63

Don’t try to dissuade people from admiring, following or worshipping authority, religious figures, celebrities, it’s futile.

I never understand why holders so sensitive and precious when it comes to criticising DW, it’s not like he’s working for free or getting peanuts. The guys on a handsome pay plus bonuses and expenses paid.

At $400 + k a year it’s not really a big deal for him if the project delayed.
+ 20%

But remember iw2 is still 50:50 cos, hence even if the management are very confident they still have to consider the 50% probability of failure and plan accordingly.
It’s a dog eat dog world out there when it comes to negotiation, having cash and be in a strong position matters.

I might send DW an email and ask for an explanation and let him know some of the holders discontent with his move.
