No. Not like that at all. That’s meaningless.

I sense sarcasm from you. How is having 3/12 board seats meaningful? What can the 3 board members do?

It’s not meaningful at all. The original comment asked “where’s the accountability”

The response was “3 board seats changed” - which is not meaningful accountability at all. Nothing changes.
