An interesting link, thanks.

They mention in passing
"...increase my notional exposure to DG via long-dated call options... own January 2026 $45 Calls for which I have paid $36.8 per share.

Almost the same contract I bought yesterday : )
I got some $40s for 41.43. Most of the "implied interest" cost of the leverage is foregoing the after-tax amount of the dividends that will be paid prior to expiry, maybe $2.50.
