We have exactly one piece of data on this case right now, which is the filed legal complaint. As a parody of corporate espionage, it's excellent, but as a piece of evidence… I would treat it with about the same seriousness as a parody of corporate espionage. Rippling has some incentive not to lie outright, but none whatsoever not to exaggerate the living heck out of everything. And so that leaves us with one unreliable document, and general background information on the parties, or "vibes" as you dismiss it. And the general background is that Rippling is litigious and clearly has a preexisting axe to grind with Deel.

What could have been exaggerated in the honeypot story? That seems pretty damning and they would be able to provide evidence to back it up (e.g. Slack access logs and the email).
