Except

A) they have to pay those employees 3 months severance so it's not immediate

B) Twitter will eventually have to hire more people because they're operating on a skeleton crew comprised mostly of people on visas. See https://matthewtejo.substack.com/p/why-twitter-didnt-go-down-from-a for an example of why Twitter hasn't suffered a massive incident yet

c) There is no way they pay $1 billion in payroll alone per year. Their last quarterly General & Administrative was $217 million.
