Although personally I tend to agree with you, this isn't evidence that they did know something else was going on.

A good lawyer would always insist on such phrasing, only addressing the absolute minimum necessary, even if there is nothing to cover up.

Of course, the fact that such outspoken CEO's all let the lawyers use them as sock puppets is still a big red flag.

(And the subsequent transparency theater that carefully circumvented any of the actual accusations makes it even more suspicious.)
