• eschewing the word “claim” but applying the doctrine in the same way
• contrasting the burden of proof for making an equitable estoppel argument against the government and the burden for making an equitable estoppel argument against a more traditional defendant, but noting the plaintiff bears the burden in both instances
• “It is true that the government could have worded the letter better.... But, the failure to explain is at best a negligent error, not a reckless one.”
