A silver lining in that admission is that Vettel did not completely rule out returning to the sport in the future.

Maybe not as a driver, but Vettel can still become a part of the circus in a different capacity. The world visualized this hypothetical scenario when Ricciardo, Russell, and Leclerc all voted for Vettel unanimously to become a team principal.
