I would rather be on the defense side of this (now not happening) transaction for a variety of reasons including the low entry barriers you reference. I doubt it even meets the notification thresholds and I also doubt that even if the government looked at it, it would be challenged. My point was only to correct the egregious misstatement of the law, not to opine about this specific ((not happening) transaction.
