Mitchell Baker is actually the one who laid off everyone to focus on the core product.

She laid them because there was not enough money to pay them. Focusing on the core product is only option left when the company no longer has manpower to do everything.

It would be an achievement if she shifted focus as soon as she became CEO, but several years later is probably too late.

Also she killed MDN, and that’s a big loss for the internet.
