You’re missing the distinction PP is pointing out, between “layoffs” and “for-cause firings.”

Getting rid of 25% of the company "for cause" is not going to hold up in court. They'll be treated as layoffs. I think Musk just proved this by trying the same thing at Tesla.

You also have it backwards. The post is positing the for-cause firings and the supposed 25% layoffs as separate events.

Ah I see now. Right we will have to see whether they’re claimed to be for-cause or not. Though the rush to fire people with a looming vesting deadline is certainly cause for suspicion.
