Operative words

'It's become obvious to us that moving forward with SuperZoo 2020 in a format that abides by health and safety regulations will compromise too many components for us to deliver the experience... Therefore, we have made the decision to postpone SuperZoo 2020' (WPA interim president, June 3, 2020, Ex. SEC-26-GM-015)
