No, it's a clear way to refute the absurd argument that a company struggling or even failing automatically means all their engineers are incompetent morons.
It's pathetic how there are people in this thread throwing blanket accusations of incompetence at engineers being laid off, primarily because they were far better paid and had far better jobs than them. It reeks of envy, and complete lack of empathy.
