I must agree with Howard and Rob now that a little more is know about the entire situation.
Clearly the purpose and meaning of the announcement by AF was to avoid possible legal entanglements and not to harm RF or promote themselves. As a company owner I recognize the potential complications at work here. There are a lot of judgment calls when you have to do the right thing for your company even though it may initially be misunderstood. I think this is one of those cases.
Whatever the problems, hopefully RF will shake them off and continue to be successful for years to come.
