I think the assumption that LB in compromising at all is a large one. For all we know, he may like and even be intrigued by the idea of Crow. Clearly, he would not go back to FM if he hated her, considered her and her work inferior, etc. To the contrary, he has worked with her before both on SYW and in the TISL sessions and made no disparaging remarks about her; she glowed about him and his work - I believe she called it pretty much as close to perfect as she had ever seen. So, I think that the apparently automatic assumption that any collaboration with Crow is made with LB's begrudging compromise is not supported by the comments made in interviews. Rather, I think LB's comments suggest he views it as an opportunity rather than caving in to the demands of the infidels.
