I wouldn't be surprised if Musk turns around and lowers his bid. At least that's what I would do. But maybe he wants the company so much that he won't contest it.

Musk’s offer explicitly didn’t demand this kind of data. I assume he figured that Twitter’s statements about its finances, number of users, growth, etc. were reliable and he didn’t need to do any additional due diligence. I thought it was reasonable at the time, and now I think he’s feeling some regret.
