I say he's stepped back a little bit since the Activision Blizzard acquisition a little bit publicly.
But yes, so Sarah has kind of become the face of Xbox during that time.
And she took over the platform work, the hardware work.

So I think everyone just kind of thought, okay, well, she's been prepped to be Phil's replacement eventually, whether it be a couple of years, five years, whatever.
It didn't happen.
But behind the scenes, I know that Xbox fans had heard, expected that this was going to happen.
Sarah Bond would be the heir apparent.
But behind the scenes for a good year or so, I've been hearing different things about Sarah Bond.
Different from what,
Perhaps the public perception is of her and just different, just not what you'd expect, I guess, from what you see of her and stuff.
So to me, it wasn't a surprise.
I was not surprised to see her not named, but I think it was more of a surprise to see Asher named.
Like that was that was kind of the surprise to me.
I know Asha a little bit.
I've spoken to her a few times, but she's like a non-gamer.
