> It makes sense to me that a small group would be much more productive than a large group

That's not the scenario. The scenario is a large group vs a large group cut into a small group.

The chaos and disruption of slicing 1/2 the company would more than offset any gains. We got people. Not machines. Not everyone adapts so fast. Team work and efficiencies take time.
