Because picking a fight with some of the world's biggest companies is the best form of damage control...

I'd like to watch them try to send an invoice to these companies.

Most likely they won't ever try, it's just a blatant lie because they have no grounds to even attempt it. They have a deal with the gamedev studio, not the platform owner.

They don't even have that because they're trying to back date this shit, and you're very much not allowed to do that. Otherwise what's the point in even having contracts?

They are definitely taking the whole "can change terms anytime" too far.
