Given the title includes her, I'd like to know what the thought was behind removing her name. I'd be very surprised if it was; 'Larry is bad, so lets not harm people by association'.

Probably along the lines of "Larry is relevant to this community and a controversial figure to boot, so his appointment should be discussed".

Her appointment should also be discussed, given how much of Tesla's bad press has been HR related over the past year. She may prove to be the more important addition.
