I'm sure the same-y ness of the language everyone uses is the result of years of academic study in to how to frame things in a way that minimizes the immediate anger in the aggrieved population to minimize things like Going Postal, or sabotage. Of course they don't care about your feelings. As soon as someone is laid off they become a tremendous liability until they are out the door.

This is also why layoffs during vacation windows and on remote sites is more common in IT. Giving people time to deal with the emotional aspect is important. As exposing a vulnerable backbone to those motivated with grievances is unwise. Recall, 93% of breaches are internal, and proprietary assets tend to leak with layoffs. It is never an easy task, but it can be done respectfully. =)
