I would guess that it would be interesting if:

1. It's a sign that the tech layoffs are part of a more general wave of layoffs

2. Most of the layoffs were on their eCommerce platform

3. If there was a blame towards Amazon. Just as an anecdote, I recently bought a whole set of camping gear on Amazon for about a third of the price as REI (and actually for cheaper than their rental rates.) Quality might not be the same, but I don't really need anything heavy duty.
