Hahaha true, and that's really not even a terrible idea to give 24 hours.

We definitely ended things on a good note with Hegarty & Educake. They were really friendly to us and also super helpful to be honest, good team over there.

That's good to hear. Maybe it wasn't a veiled threat, but rather an attempt to be nice. ("A lot of companies would sue you right now, but we would never do that," could be an alternate reading.)

100% veiled threat. Even the "a lot of companies.." interpretation is just a reminder of their power should you not want to hop on that call.

He explicitly avoided saying he wouldn't do it. He said he prefered not to, because he was making a threat to harm the person who exposed his incompetence and caused no harm.
