> A much easier explanation is that Twitter management was caught off-guard by Musk, and then later realized Musk was bullshitting in a way they could take advantage of.

Doesn't that mean Musk was caught off guard (or in a self-own) by Twitter, not the other way around? Or that it seemed like a good deal for all parties until the floor fell out from under both Twitter and Tesla stock, at which point it became an incredibly bad deal for Musk.

Both. Twitter used Musk's own momentum against him.
