I don’t know. If I was defending CTV, I’d be putting him to the strict proof of any assertion that resignation was his only reasonable option. Maybe he can prove it, maybe he can’t. If he can’t, then suddenly a lot of his damages start to look self-inflicted. And if I’m CTV, I say that I’m not liable for any of those self-inflicted damages.

This is obviously just off the top of my head but seems like an interesting issue to me.
