Replaceability is a vain concept. Simile: saying “your brain is replaceable”. Beyond the fact that the most likely context is a threat, it is a poor argument: while technically true, what would remain of me would not be meaningfully me. And the surgery is work that would be hard-pressed to generate the expected value, such that the only reason to do it, is either out of anger or as a consequence of irremediable damage. Companies are stories. The decisions are made internally, but their meaning is narrated externally. If you change the protagonists, the story changes. The case of Uber’s self-driving car division is quite an example of that. Does the change in Google’s story converge to a positive or a negative light? |

Like all stories, the meaning and message of the story is formed in the mind of the reader, not the mind of the writer.
Every reader will make their own meaning, and fit that into their own story.
It's impossible to say whether this change results in a positive or negative effect: it will be positive for some, negative for some.
