When you buy a company and your staff has had near complete turnover and your product significantly changes (at least in consumers eyes), are you actually the same company?

I'd say that shortly after Elon bought it twitter effectively became a start-up rather than an established company.

Arguing otherwise is like saying Xerox Park would have been the exact same institution even if all the staff were swapped with interns and management fundamentally change mission statements etc.....

Kind of absurd when framed that way, huh?
