If we're replacing 2 seniors and 6 juniors with just 2 seniors, where are you gonna get more seniors when the 2 retire?

The same way that currently most HR departments only care about people with at least 10 years experience in exactly the same stack the company is using, and more often than not, training is not even part of the picture.
That problem isn't in scope. That's a long term issue, we care about returns we can deliver in the next 2 quarters.

Happily drive off a cliff?

With a golden parachute nonetheless.
