Twitter was contractually obliged to give him data to help him close the deal, not to help him find a way to squirrel out of the deal.

I suggest reading the twitter complaint. It is not long, and it is very well written. They discuss many (if no all) things musk has been saying trying to avoid the acquisition.

If I recall correctly, Twitter says they had no obligation to provide the firehose to Musk, but they did anyway. Musk had issues with rate limit, but twitter fixed it in reasonable time.
