Weird Al’s “mission statement” was released in 2014 and was itself a parody of the KPMG anthem (which was done in earnest) that was leaked less than a year prior to Enron failing. There would likely have not been any collective cultural sentiment around this text in the year 2000 in the same way as there is today.
Just something to keep in mind when viewing historical events, even if they seem recent, with a modern lens and values.
