I have an alternative theory. In bad times consumers no longer want to pay for a cherry on top. So you go back to basics and lay off the people putting it there.

I'd adjust this and say the execs believe that, so they do it, whether or not it's true.

I seriously doubt these layoffs are from actual, measurable consumer responses.
