Obviously, it is much more complex and confusing than this and there are a lot of salient facts that I've left out, but you get the general idea.

That B the nutshell. Nicely done.
The bonds were issued in "the gray area" of tax law.
Advisors play in the gray area and the tax payor determines if they want to play or not.
Calculated risk.
