Am I dumb or does th article not mention the executive's response to this question?

If it's like a lot of other tech companies, likely this was posted in a questions thread during a large meeting, and while everyone can see the questions being posed, Execs pick and choose which questions they're interested in answering, ignoring the ones they don't like. It's a good way of determining employee morale while avoiding all accountability.

It’s not really a question anyways, just a statement rephrased to fit into the format.

It is a fair and square question. "This is our position, what is your response to that?" And the answer is also clear "We care so little about you, that we don't even recognize your position."
