The answer is simple, Babaoriley: There's a probability that POET can be mass produced. And there's another probability that POET cannot be mass produced. The sum of both probabilities is 1 (resp. 100 %).
In my (and POET Technologies') opinion the first probabilty outweights the second probability by far. However, one has to consider that although the second probability is very small it is still greater than zero. It is the purpose of the 20F and the purpose of investor relations to point out all the risks however small they might be. Chris Chu did just that. If some investors don't understand that, this is their own problem, not Chris'.
Would be very much appreciated of course if the company would tell us how large resp. small they consider those probabilities, i.e. if they not only tell us that their is a certain risk but also what in their opinion the probability of its occurence is, i.e. if they put a number to it.
