This might not be that objective, but it feels worse than if he had said nothing at all.

I bet the lawyers checked this memo over twice. Must stay 100 yds away from any admission of wrong-doing.

Even from a PR standpoint, he should have said nothing. Covid is raging, Facebook is getting sued, a bunch of people will be off of work for a few weeks not thinking about Google... Just let it blow over.
