You don't see the risk that is created when you allow unexercised options get called at a later date, when they're in the money, because the company is 'doing well'?

The options are exercised. OOP didn't do any diligence, got shorted, cared too late.
No, I guess I don't. The companies can choose to do what they want and I think they can make a different decision based on how well they are doing. I don't know. They don't have to, but I don't see why they couldn't.
If that were the case, why would anyone pay to exercise options ever again?
So that they aren't relying on a company to choose to do something out of kindness.
Correct.
The last time someone decided that an option shouldn't expire got us inflation, unemployment, inequality and a debt crisis.
Good thing that we stopped right???
Looks at the funding rate of his options in his wallet that he uses to buy things at the supermarket. Still no funding rate in sight.
