Burry was the only one who agreed to use his own name I guess.

In your attached argument, Greenblatt says "Mike sold some of his corporate CDSs a few weeks later to meet the redemptions and did not side-pocket the remaining corporate CDS portfolio." Seems like they both agree that corporate CDSs were not side-pocketed. I.e. he was portrayed wrong by Lewis. "Greenblatt was a little annoyed by the question: “Michael Lewis has never let the facts get in a way of a good story."

I guess Joel Greenblatt will not be too happy with how he was portrayed in the movie.. I wonder who`s right: did Burry sidepocket the corporate CDS positions or not? See attached arguments from both sides.
