So you interpret "is there any part of the Wordpress cluster of organizations that do not ultimately answer to Matt?" as being a YES or NO question?

I interpret it as a request for information about what is Matt's role in the ecosystem and I was gathering information to share about that.

However, if you are not interested in factual information, the answer is: YES, there are various parts of the the Wordpress cluster of organizations that do not ultimately answer to Matt.

Which ones aren't under his control? HR? Legal? Because no sane person would be letting him do this
While I love the use of passive aggressive language, in this case, as it was originally written, "However, if you are not interested in factual information, the answer is: YES" causes some globule of confusion to the primary reader --

Is this to imply that the answer Yes to the question about Matt's control over the organizations named WordPress is _not_ in fact factual?

Dictated not read.
