He's not that stupid not to call back, just rude IMO.
He's probably way too busy and trying to prioritise his time on what is more likely to bring immediate money. Assuaging a PI, while he probably has nothing to say that is not price sensitive, may not be possible. Just a call back to say "no news I can share, sorry" would be both uncomfortable for him and the PI and be a lose-lose situation.
What was not clever was saying that he'd call back in the first place, he should have said to the Nomad "no non-confidential updates to share, sorry" and left it at that.
