Its not not an MBA thing either. Sure its fun to dump on MBAs as being ruthless, careless and thinking of resources as replaceable widgets. To some degree you are right in that bad leadership will make these sorts of short sighted decisions, but Ive met enough MBAs to think that that masters degree is a shortcut to being a "good" manager.

I think MBA here is a label to fill in for a cost-first mindset vs maybe a value-first balance. By that I mean a more balanced view of the company making money not by prioritizing first order mechanics of profits, but more in depth view of how the profits are maximized by actual product workings - which tends to be represented at secondary, tertiary, or even deeper level in the accounting structure if at all.
