Interesting. I'm not sure I understand why one type of charlatan is more important than the other.
If you want WeWork/SoftBank to be regulated, which a lot of people do, it's kind of important that the people doing the regulating understand what they're doing.
(edit: If you think a comment is off-topic then just say so. There's no need to be so insulting.)
There's an intelligent conversation to be had for sure about how large firms like SoftBank are intentionally playing the market and unsavvy investors. This isn't it.
