It's a clear-cut case of cope. To be blunt, when an entire branch of any company workforce just up and leaves, the chance that this loss was due to the workers and not incompetent management is FUCKING ZERO. Despite the lack of internal information, it is abundantly clear that Kawaii fucked up massively and now needs to either restructure or die, as their completion is not nearly as incompetent. She is the chief breadwinner, and the company bends to her, so she clearly wants to keep the gravy train growing with her coomer audience.
