I mean, intention usually matters.

People can and do regularly misspeak.

If you send a follow-up letter right after the first - it's hard to know if you're covering your ass or you realize you messed up.

And if you have good enough lawyers and you're not on trial for something like murder - you can usually get away with stuff like that.

As I think we should.

If I could go to jail for every time I said something dumb on accident - I'd have been locked up for life before I turned 20.

I don't think anybody is saying that you should have to go to jail for everytime you said something dumb! But if you are going to be acting anticompetitively, it sure is a dumb idea to send a memo about it--followup email or not.
