I'm sorry, did I miss something? 

Yes, you missed something. You missed the IF. It was used as an example as a what-if scenario.

Where did you get the notion that they don't own Intelligent Systems from? They're an in house first party studio that was formed by members of Nintendo R&D 1 and were originally a part of the department they were created initially for programming purposes such as porting software to rom cartridges.

This is why IS handle a lot of programming tasks for Nintendo before anyone goes on about IS being a partner the studio Creatures are also a partner but are fully owned by Nintendo as they used to be called APE who are the team that did Earthbound.
