A forced sale guarantees ByteDance gets a fire sale price. If there’s any way forward that allows them to sell not-under-duress, there’s a chance for far more upside.
That works even for pure economics game theory, aside from wanting to continue in what they built on principle/commitment/interest in the project.
Would Zuck give up Facebook for the right price? Would he give it up for a highly discounted price of a rush sale?
