For what it’s worth: I believe they will prove ineffective at best, damaging at worst.

I believe disruptive change should be undertaken with a deep understanding of the history of an organization and a clear-eyed accounting of its successes and failures.

I see no evidence of this. I believe the current effort is, well, a bit more like a recklessly wielded chainsaw.

If Twitter was a failing business and Musk didn't have a proven track record, I’d be a lot more skeptical in general. If the nuclear staffing cuts weren’t immediately rolled back, I’d feel more concerned about the ability of the wielders.
