It does when it’s part of eliminating an entire division and 7,000 others are losing their jobs.

For clarity 7,000 jobs are being eliminated while the division is being folded into other business units and will no longer exist separately. Division being eliminated, while still correct in a way, can easily sound like the entire division is no more not moved around.

The division is eliminated. Some people are relocated to other divisions. This isn't really a confusing point.

When said with certain context absolutely. That is all I was trying to highlight - not that the concept itself is complex. There are, after all, plenty of times a division is truly just shut down instead of folded in. The article does a good job of putting in context and comments can lose that so I had to refer back to the article to make sure I understood what happened.
