That may be by design: the spying issue might hurt the stock/situation/etc more than the affair.
Imagine being almost 60 and worrying about your wife finding you had an affair. I think you should rather worry about the next episode which is certain death.
With the financial affairs settled, the kids old enough to not be affected and 40 years of marriage I really fail to see the issue of an affair here. Not to mention being an workaholic most of his life. Give him a break
That's a non-argument against a social construct. Religion has influenced every aspect of society, including morality as a whole. That historical fact doesn't invalidate the social norms, in the same way that secular norms are not invalidated by their dissociation from religion.

Because of his actions, he will be alienated from his family. Objectively, pretty much every human derives fulfillment in life, and peace as they approach death, from their relations to others around them.

LOL. Let's give this poor trillionaire a break, think of what these HN comments will do to his psyche! What's that about his wife being cheated on? Shush.
It's not about religion, it's about trust and keeping promises. Like it or not, the default understanding in a marital relationship in many places in the world is monogamy. Some people, of course, engage in other practices, after an explicit discussion, and agreement and understanding. But presumably Huang's wife believed she and her husband were in a monogamous relationship, and trusted Huang to keep it that way. That's the issue; religion is irrelevant. (And different religious practices have different things to say about monogamy vs. polyamory, and atheists decide for themselves if they want to be monogamists or polyamorists; religion need not be involved at all.)
But regardless, I think his infidelity is not his employees' business; IMO it's weird to bring it up in this way. The bit about his affair partner possibly(?) being a spy is the thing that actually matters to NVIDIA and NVIDIA employees, but he only dedicates a few sentences to it.
