I tend to agree with you that it was in hindsight an error to even discuss with at all, but I don’t think @Rob Bensinger is being dishonest here. “decided against pursuing the option” do mean they took some time to make the decision and didn’t just ghost him without exchanging any more information (which I agree would have been preferable in hindsight).
