I feel if they really were, they'd revisit the 2D animation style that all the classics were in and release new movies in it.

Instead, they seem to have largely settled on the Pixar style for "new" IPs, while mechanically producing live-action remakes for every classic.

I don't really get the strategy.

Look at the C-suite. It's full of people from tech and even bio-tech. It's the California strategy of buying up competitors and attempt a monopoly.

It's no surprise they let their own brands completely languish.

I mean, they did do the whole Mickey Mouse series which was excellent. My favorite by far being Croissant de Triomphe: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zCaxXQdkfPk
The day they stopped making these was a sad, sad day for me as far as entertainment goes. Loved that series, closest thing I've enjoyed to classic Looney Tunes.
