Part of owning equity in a publicly traded company is for shareholders to accept the decisions of the board (management). Or otherwise engage in a conflict with the board. Even if Joann was a viable business on its own, if most shareholders wanted to accept the price being offered for the business (presumably reflected by the board's votes), then that is all that matters.

I don't think anyone is arguing over that. What we're saying is that Joann's was a victim of private equity, which is orthogonal to that point.
