Not sure where yours is coming from, if we look at [20] it makes no such claim.

That doesn't imply ownership and the article [20] that you pointed out doesn't make a specific claim. All good, but MSFT never fully owned or operated SCO at any level is the point I'm trying to make.

You aren't really saying anything at all. SCO would never have existed without Microsoft and Microsoft had a very significant stake in their business and gave it direction.
