One thing is for sure: It will be absolute hell for those who will have to keep things running in the coming months. For better or worse Twitter infra is extremely comlex. 50% gone would be very rough even if the cuts were made thoughtfully and things were in KTLO-only mode. But that's not the case. Musk has already been pushing changes through skipping the normal process and will likely continue doing so, aggressively. Not a good combination.
