    Hmmm what if you're mimicing an audience member because you can't announce something, so you instead say something like "what if more bayonetta is on the way because of X?"

    Then the company is the implier to the speaker. The speaker is the inferer from the company.

    The speaker is also the implier to the audience, while the audience is the inferer to the speaker.

    Oooohhh that layers
