Come on. That is because this is a negotiation between Anthropic and the DoD and they understandably don't want to burn bridges.

Do you just expect Anthropic to totally blow up all bridges to the government? What do you actually want them to do?

Reading your comment history I'm not sure they could do anything to satisfy you.

I'm not the one claiming they have principles so.. No? I expect them to do whatever they think they need to at any given moment to enrich themselves.

Their "moat" is nothing more than momentum at this point. They are AOL on an accelerated timeline.
