Why is everyone so sympathetic to a billionare?

Literally any other CEO would be resigning from another company if they did the same thing

As long as humans work for companies, there are going to be workplace affairs

Bezos didn't. Cost him $38B though.

The subtext I takeaway from this is that there is more than just the affair. But by resigning it makes the problem go away for Nvidia itself.

No, it doesn't. If NVidia broke export controls, it doesn't matter who was at the helm when it happened; it's still a problem for the Corporation.

And a non-zero amount of them will have had affairs.

More than I would have guessed... the number of comments I've seen this week outright congratulating Huang and/or claiming they would have done the same has been very eye-opening.

I'd like to know how many of them moralize about minorities and liberals...

Idk if it's sympathy, it's just... Do you not expect wildy rich people not to use the wild riches? Or do you think they meditate and practice restraint in worldly desires? I mean, cmon.
