Which probably means are they are being pretty brutally honest as they are attacking their very own business model.
There is a conservation of expected probability thing happening here, so if 'hypocrisy' is more trustworthy than not knowing how someone acts, then 'principled' must be less trustworthy.
But if you said someone was obviously being dishonest because their actions match their words, you'd make no sense.
I am almost completely certain your statement is similarly absurd.
