I agree with most of your post, but definitely NOT

Holding back now applies mainly to stock flippers, both low and high rollers, but not so much to actual buy and hold investors.
Once the LieHub BS claiming that the CBD Life deal is "fake news" has been fully diffused, and the revenues hit the RMHB accounts, the buying pressure will start climbing, but that doesn't mean that news of the company's progress right now is "fluff".
For true longs, they are definitely green as all hell if they think that news of management's progress with building this company is "fluff news" as you put it, just because that news didn't run the stock price up where you want it.
That's just life in the stock market, especially the OTC, the home of the penny stock manipulators.
It has no relevance to true longs capable of seeing the actual value of what's being built, understanding that all of this news is the story of a company from birth to maturity, and it's growth will reach a point of "critical mass" at which point serious investment capital will begin pouring in.
It'll start while still trading on the OTC, but will truly explode once they up-list to a major exchange allowing the biggest and best stock analysts to relay the golden facts about RMHB to large investors/investment groups and institutions. Up-listing is not as far off as many frustrated investors may believe it is at this point.
We had of course hoped to see it sooner and avoid the RS, but not one of us could possibly know for certain what the founder was doing in the back alleys, or how long the regulatory road blocks and trade war BS would delay our progress on both sides of the border.
That's us. As far as management goes, even if they did know, and they definitely didn't, there was nothing they could've done about it any better than what they did.
Hopefully many people will have actually learned from the story of this company. Learned that you can't always get rich overnight with start up companies. If, however, they hang around, paying close attention so as to understand how much better the prospects are now than when the egg hatched in 2015, they should be very happy with the latter half of the story.
For many, IMHO, it will make retirement literally golden. I've got some eggs in other baskets as well, but I believe the RMHB basket is one of them with the greatest potential.
