I didn't miss that part of the quote. And no it would make no difference to Otellini or to the discussion in this thread because he also didn't know the estimate was wrong when he made the decision.

Yes, but that's just an outcome of Intel's/Otellini incompetence (in that specific case) rather than anything else. He used bad data to make an (arguably) bad decision.
