This is how I interpreted it myself. It’s quite comforting to hear, from the perspective of an ordinary person, that Pokémon masters and highly intelligent investors can make such simple mistakes and draw completely wrong conclusions from them. The schedule was indeed very tight, and everyone makes mistakes more easily when in a hurry (especially when children are also sharing this time). Sometimes, however, wrong interpretations are rewarded. It’s good that there was a profit and no one suffered a loss because of this either. Of course, everyone should calculate the numbers themselves and not outsource their thinking entirely, but I wonder how many did, as no one cheered earlier.
