I wish I were as optimistic about Musk as you are. This seems a lot like a convenient re-imagining of the conversations he had to try and persuade people that he wasn't deliberately manipulating a short-squeeze. He's just some country bumpkin who don't understand these fancy contracts those city types insist on, he had a conversation and a hand shake and that's all he needs.

If he actually follows through with a deal, can he still be held culpable for market manipulation?
