But what's changed? If Parag wanted to go this direction why didn't he do it when he took over as CEO?

A thoughtful CEO doesn’t take the role and immediately start making changes. It takes some time to absorb what’s going on.

It's not like he was an outsider, he was CTO for about 5 years before he became CEO. He knew what was going on in the company.

Knowing Parag, he probably didn’t actually have strong opinions about Product until it was his job to.

He's been at twitter for 11 years and was the CTO, should take a couple weeks to get up to speed on the knowledge delta between CEO and CTO.

You might be underestimating the complexity of being a good CEO (not to say he is) at a public tech company under a lot of global government scrutiny.
