> Restoring a company also restores its liabilities (debts), so it's clear they were not doing it in 2021 to get out of debts.

Was it clear that wasn't the reason they were not doing it, or was it clear that the reason they were not doing it was to get out of debts?

They did it, so both of those are ruled out by context.

That's how I talk, and admittedly some people find how I talk confusing when I think it's clear. Thanks for the amusing heads up on language interpretation!

In pseudo-code: (clear (not (eq (reason for doing it) (to get out of debts))))).
