intentionally pedantic. of course the companies share intellectual, technical, supply chain, and human resources from when they were one. of course they are not in constant and open trade of those resources but they have them in common, to a degree that a boycott of one will affect the other.
pedanticism about the brand too. of course its separate by law but you are kidding yourself if you think anyone sees “Hewlett Packard” and doesn’t associate “HP”—to a degree that a boycott of one will affect the other.
further pedanticism with your “nuance” about public shares. do you think the pre-2015 owners and executives just picked a side and sold off all their non HP/HPE shares? no, they probably kept them and there is a non-insignificant crossover in ownership to a degree that a boycott of one will affect the other. hope this helps.
