I'm so used to these penalties never being enough to change behavior that I just assumed that was going to be the case here again. Buuuut, METAs market cap is apparently $1.562T, soooo for once I'm thinking... "Yah, that's about right."

Weird that the decimal is in the wrong spot. 14 Trillion sounds about right. 15 Trillion looks nicer.

20 trillion is a nice round number.

Meta is only worth $1.5trillion so it doesn't make any difference.

Sounds like they need to apply for a loan.
