True, but there's always the possibility of the Vision Fund selling WeWork to Softbank proper. And I don't think this round of investment is from the Vision Fund, so it appears that Softbank proper is going to end up with a larger stake than the Vision Fund already. I suppose there's also always the option of selling WeWork to Berkshire Hathaway or something if they can get it boring and profitable.

I suppose itβs theoretically possible but Vision Fund invested $10.5Bn in WeWork expecting a multiple of that back for Vision Fund investors. Where will SoftBank get that kind of money?
