Or ... Obie thought he had pulled together a team of truly crack scientists/engineers who could do what Tony does (oh yeah right, like there could be two Nikola Teslas living in one lifetime?) and could, therefore, toast the Tone.
Oooh! I like that! The straw that broke the camel's back, so to speak. "HE BUILT THIS IN A CAVE. FROM A BUNCH OF SCRAPS." He probably as under no illusions that together they were as smart as Tony, but he thought they were good enough, and to find out that even with excessive planning (maybe killing Howard was a whim, and the second time around he promised himself he'd cover all the bases just to be sure) that he still failed to account for all the variables probably just drove him to want to literally take the situation into his own hands. Big metal ones. With guns on the end of 'em. 'Cause I don't know about you, but when I think of Stark Industries, the first thing that comes to my mind is "subtlety." Right?
(also, "toast the Tone" just makes me lol in general. heeee.)
