Yes, an expensive mistake.
What is actually acquiring? Where is the value?
Maybe, for Vault, in the enterprise release, but 6.4B for that and the Terraform Cloud. Marketing, training, sales, ... community advocates don't have that value.
There are better options, could have acquired Env0 and commit employees to support the forks.

I think IBM has not been properly advised.
