Never define yourself by the competition.
But didn't he? I mean, quoting their cap number, it's obvious who he is talking about, so why not just say the name?
They are in a space where mind-share is really important.

(I think that mind-share being important is a sign you are in a risky business, but that's neither here nor there.)

But to his own employees? I understand in a public PR, but his letter was internal.
You train like you fight.
