That's why I think he should have taken his own interpersonal and forced that through.

Which browser was he concerned about? Internet Explorer. Why? Because it's their product - in the browser space, that one is literally his main concern.

Evoking a "That's not what i meant" response comes across rather differently than the wordplay shown here. And having the attorney narrow the question to sth like "but out of IE's competitors, which one concerns you?" is the open door you're looking for.

("None really concern me in any sense of the word.", etc.)

The question cleverly prevented that - it said "non-Microsoft browsers"

Missed that. I stand corrected.
