Staff reductions for changes in priorities/direction is normally fine, I think the problem Musk's Twitter had is they cut far too fast, far too quick, with seemingly a balance sheet at the forefront.
It is the whole "Learn WHY things are how they are, before you suggest changing them" which all new engineers need to learn, also seemingly applies to restructuring. If they had waited a couple of months, they could have made strategically smart changes, and over the long term it likely won't cost them more.
