Yeah that's putting an awfully positive spin on "they put way more balls in the air than they were competent to juggle, and made the mistake of flash-forwarding to a future that turned out to have nothing to do with anything, so in the end they just caught one or two of the balls, let the rest hit the ground and shatter, and pointed at the resulting mess to say 'look, this is totally what we told you we were aiming for!'."
I'm just surprised /m/ hasn't been decimated by reaction-whiplash after the "NO UNDERSTANDING -> UNDERSTANDING" switch. I'm not really surprised.
