Elon Musk needs to give a very good explanation for this, and it had better involve an actual bug or serious platform engineering issue leading to a massive renewed hiring push to build Twitter 2.0 instead of this bullshit. There are so many innovative ideas that aren’t being moved on because the existing leadership there is sitting on its hands for some reason. Twitter 2.0 would be a really cool product.

It’s incredible there are still people like you who refuse to accept reality. Bug? Engineering issue? Have you considered that your leader is just a fraud and a hypocrite?

Don't assume so much about someone off of so little available information.

Considering the timing it wouldn’t be very plausible explanation.

Could be. Lots of disgruntled employees, way fewer engineers, etc. What would Occam's Razor suggest? That the CEO of the company told them, in broad daylight, to make this conspiratorial change at this time? Or that it's an error?

Yes? I mean, he has acted out of spite and whimsy on countless other issues since buying Twitter. Occam's Razor suggests that he keeps showing us who he is and we should understand that, not construct theories about some miraculously timed bug.
