While we have pondered "did he or didn't he?" over years past, and will do
so into the future, still I think we can all agree that it is ambiguous.

Likewise I'm reasonably sure that we can all agree that we are in the
bleachers of the arena, and the referees made the call: they said the words
(talk of combining two persons), they backed it up with actions (taking out
the non-corporeal parts of Silk aged 40-something; transferring in Horn's
non-corporeal parts; the download from Mainframe of Silk-23 later on may
have been their doing or not, if it happened, that is).

The umpires made their call.  This is not ambiguous.
