Unstraightforward

…blame attaches solely to the Liberal Government then in power, for its tortuous and unstraightforward policy.

…I have been no kinder to IBM concerning IBM's abandonment of OS/2 (which is, in fact, what IBM is doing despite a superficial pretense at "continuing to support and enhance" the product) than I was concerning Microsoft's equally unstraightforward abandonment of OS/2 the winter of '90/'91.

The answer I will suggest to both questions is “yes,” although in rather surprising and unstraightforward ways.
