It looks like he'll start the Tour and it looks like ASO somehow had to slap The Shack.

If the Giro was the GT for which they didn't apply, so no one's feelings were hurt, Vuelta is different story.
Maybe this is start of something bigger.

I'm pretty surprised by RS not being invited to the Vuelta, especially on the heals of Brajkovic's Dauphine win. It looked like Jani and Levi were planning on racing in the final grand tour of the season.

Yes.
The Shack could send there very strong team. Vuelta would be more interesting with them.
As I said, ASO is telling them something this way, I think.
