Well, Amy cannot prove a negative, so for the moment i would keep my personal powder dry on that. But you ask very proper questions, imo.

Like many here, i would like to see her succeed, as she has brought both facts and authority to this thread and others.

Notice that Mr. Shelby is quite supercillious (or genuine, depending on your POV), regarding how Amy is in-charge and "runs" things. He's only along for the ride? Not a businessman? Not an engineer? Just human resources manager?

Anytime i might hear a shrewdie like Shel' announce in such a global way that i was in charge, i would start looking around for a crowd coming our way with a rope and seeking a suitable nearby tree limb. Some folks might call it Amy's battle-field commission. i call it Shel's responsibility abandonment. Commodore Carroll has gone down with no ships.

He doesn't often telegraph his punches and leaves few traffic holes unfilled on his way to the finish line. He is very very smart, folks. And crazy like a fox on scent. But, we all know that...
