The board has not been consistently candid in its communications with... anyone.

That have also given different opinions on an employee (sama) to different people, by seemingly acting to bring him back and replace him at the same time. And, they have acted to give the same project (CEO of openai) to different people at the same time... Hmmmm

This.

This is the most baffling piece of the whole saga. Board writes itself on the wall.

I'm not sure it is baffling.

They thought that this would be easy. Many things in their lives have been easy, blame someone of something, the person scurries away and they win.

This time, the person/people they blamed had a great reputation, a lot of influential friends, and had engendered a lot of loyalty. This caused pushback and they have never had to deal with that in their lives.

It's a theory.

I'm curious if literally anyone (the board, the CEO(s), Microsoft, Twitter, etc) knows the full story or knows whats actually going on lol. I assumed initially it was just fog of war, but this just seems like pure incompetence and "purple monkey dishwasher" tier misinformation.

Everyone who sat in the meeting with the board ousting Sam knows enough of the reason as to why he was ousted. They all voted Yes, and even if some of them regret it now that they see it didn't unfold as just a simple "we now have control"-play, they all had reasons to vote him out. But those reasons obliviously aren't grounded in anything they can reveal to the public.
