Has anyone else noticed the redactions have variable widths?

A little video of devtools:

I remember seeing techniques which could decode such redactions from PDFs. I don't know why the widths would be included unless it was intentional (stylistic, maybe? but it would be a bear to code), or perhaps exported from something like Adobe Acrobat.

Elon's email is one solid redaction block, while the email body is broken up into widths that don't seem to be consistent.



Somebody used Claude to attempt to un-redact the missing text, and the result it generated is scarily convincing:

Except the CC part. Why would you include the co-founder of your competitor in an email describing how to win over said competitor?
