Thought-provoking closing paragraph from the linked Cornel Chronicle article about the transition:

"Morrisett also said that arXiv needed to be more nimble when it came to hiring – and paying – staff than was possible under the Cornell umbrella."

IOW, it's hard to hire the software engineers at the University payscale.
