People are usually flexible enough to switch directions. I wonder how many of those laid off employees would have been happy to do so given the chance?
I would assume such things were considered. You should also wonder how many people weren't fired because they did switch directions. Don't assume you have the entire story.

You're contradicting yourself here.
How is that a contradiction? Assuming one thing is not claiming I have the entire story.
