A General Counsel writing "I'm pleased to have this opportunity..." when it can only properly be understood by anyone reading it as "You're a buffoon who has completely and utterly wasted my time" is just a chef's kiss of an insult.

I rather like "I'm afraid you have been misinformed". Jolly useful and a hell of an opening line. Presents an opportunity to back down right away.

“To update you on our longstanding position” is a beautiful, deliberate tautology that screams “you are too stupid to notice nothing has changed”

As something of a wine nerd - I obsess about a single hill in Piedmont - I would love to hear more about the "Gascon wine trade 1152-1453" (and how that research came about?)

“I’m pleased to have this opportunity” in an “it’s not every day I get to publicly roast idiots this hard” sense, it seems.
