GoPro Confusion

First post here and just checking to see if I’m as regarded as I think I am: $GPRO news is fantastic yes? It’s massively shorted, it gets pumped by YouTuber(s) and hype, and then news of buyout by a mysterious and cash loaded AI infrastructure company. What I think people are missing is this: "In connection with the proposed transaction, GoPro shareholders will receive an aggregate cash payment of $285 million, or $1.14 per share, subject to potential adjustment based on GoPro's net working capital at closing and will maintain ownership of approximately 10% of the outstanding shares of the Company." So if I understand this correctly, if the stock closes at or under $1.14 then that price is marked in, but it can go infinitely higher and be adjusted. That, and this seems to be the only exposure to the buyout company. With the massive short as an option and with buyout being a safety cushion why aren’t people pumping the absolute snot outta this thing?
