When news first broke Tuesday morning that Elon Musk was again interested in acquiring Twitter Inc for US$44bil (RM204.02bil), most employees of the social network were sitting through an hourslong 2023 strategy presentation.

Presenters from internal groups like the product and revenue teams didn’t officially discuss the development, or even acknowledge that Musk was back on board.
