The company left a liability floating around, which was a disgruntled co founder. Like a liability on your balance sheet.

And if you're the disgruntled co founder, this is your most opportune moment to extract maximum equity value for yourself.

What I don't understand is, if a company did this to another company, people are all like 'yeah, that's how the market works', but when a person does it to a person, they're all like 'you're heartless and not playing nice'. Why the hypocrisy?
