1. Given Jack's level of support for Elon, does anyone think he doesn't already know _exactly_ where the skeletons are buried?

2. It seems entirely unreasonable to assume that Elon doesn't want to own Twitter, or that he tried to buy it on a lark and changed his mind. If your premise is that Elon did want to own Twitter a few weeks ago and doesn't want to own Twitter now you should rethink your opinion.

There is nothing unreasonable here, it's perfectly understandable. Stock market crashed, which means the proposed buying price for Twitter is now too high, PLUS Tesla stock is less valuable which means he has to use a lot more to get funding. It up debatable whether he wants out of the deal completely or just want to negotiate for a lower price though.
