I dunno, based on what you wrote about the process it sounds impossible to actually fire someone.

Unless they are so toxic that everyone hates them, they’ll be able to swing performance to an even average.

Or at least squeak along until they leave of their own volition.

I can kind of see why that would be annoying to someone that used to be able to make personal arbitrary choices from his own authority.

Ok, but then they're just average, not bad. Hence, no need to fire them.
