i don't know what legalities would be involved in all of this, but I think that you are on the right path.
With wishful thinking, I would like to see Dalrada dumped, or at least the contract re-negotiated, reducing their number of board members.
If/when Dalrada decide to walk, I believe that they have to give notice, and MCT should be planning a strategy in that event.
An alternative source of funding would be for MCT to sell off some of their shares in GMFC. They own approx 90% of approx 4,000,000 shares,IIRC. I am sure that there are many fans out there, me included, who already own some shares. Perhaps them and other fans would be prepared to purchase some more.
