Making a statement like this is generally part of the terms of the acquisition.

Sure, but I imagine the terms of the acquisition doesn’t say you have to write it in this specific style.

I’m sure there’s a way to say the same thing without coming across as a bullshitter.

I just don't think there's much upside to telling it how it is in the press release that gets buried after a week and everyone moves on. For better or worse.

Why is telling it like it is not the rational default?

If this is a forgettable press release isn't it lower effort than coming up with this type of nonsense?

More like employees number 32,463 and 32,464 - they’re two people from what I seen on GitHub over the years. (Incredibly strong two people)
