If I buy an asset for $2bn with free cash I have then I still have the $2bn in a different form.  It has zero impact on the value of the company.

If I markd down an asset to the value of $1.5bn then I lose 1.5bn from the value of the company...add that the to 500m operating loss and yes the company will be worth $2bn less.

There is a huge difference.

One is good or neutral, one is horrible.

 

Except Mojang isn't really worth 2,5 BN dollars. That is overpriced as fuck. In reality it might be worth ~1-1,5 BN.

You may be correct, you may be way off.

But, so? again... how is this relevant to the topic at hand?

It's just as relevant as what you and that other user has been discussing. You and that other user were debating this, and I decided to join in. You got a problem with that.
