The "why do they need so many people" were probably in favor of Musk ?

On the other side people were already asking why Twitter didn't do more moderation and better filtering (= more people).

And we expected that breaking rules would have serious repercussions, which was a foolish assumption as we've seen.

I can speak for myself. I think Enron Musk is a despicable person, and at the same time I don't understand why a shitty app needs so many people.

  • It's an easy (but often wrong) transition from "I don't understand why" to "it must not be necessary".

    • "I don't understand why ..." is a polite way of saying "I have some experience on the matter and have come up the belief that ...". The actual conclusion may still be wrong, but I hope this helps with your reading of my comment.
