The comments ITT are a great example of why it’s often a good idea to ignore complaints and do whatever you want anyway. The behaviour that conventionally would be used to build trust, like admitting when you’re wrong and changing what you’re doing (in this case, shutting down an entire division of your company) is simple met with “no not good enough, you were wrong and should be punished more”.
