I think you missed the point: the domain has not been in Musk's control that whole time, as I had thought. His company X.com had it, then PayPal got it when it was created in the merger of X.com and Confinity, and PayPal kept it after Musk left, but then Musk got it back.

This doesn't contradict what you're saying, but note that the company was only re-branded to PayPal after Musk left it. I think it was just named Confinity after the merger.

I'm sorry to be the one to let you know but 2017 was under two decades ago.

2017 is not 1999

Given the start of this thread was about N, C, X etc ...

We could even say "2017 > 1999", giving an ordering over these numbers.

I'm delighted to let you know that you missed the point. It was a very short comment.
