The best way to avoid dealing with an issue
is to abuse the critic: Ed does it all the time; & so do you.
(To be fair, though, you don't share Grondine's tendency toward's creative venacular)
Keep toeing the MirCorp line & everyone will think that something's happening there; & when ultimately it doesn't, you can always blame the critics who pointed out the fact that this SFF emperor wears no financial clothes.
