I agree, but I also think that his next choice of employment cast enough light on his comments in general to make them rather suspect. There's still an impressive amount of people who worked on BG1 still in the company who've not seen fit to move on after ~15 years there...
Hell, if you were similarly inclined you could twist this to similar, rather nasty results.
Lame attempt. You should've linked to Brian Mistoda leaving during Alpha Protocol development (though that still wouldn't be up to par with a lead designer leaving in the middle of development of a major title).
