I think it's just some massive amount of copium from OP. Like he genuinely believes there is some "employee takeover" and this addition is some sort of "employee decision".
Talk about not having a clue of how it works. The "employee takeover" lasted a week where ActiBlizz let them blow off steam with their walkouts and shit. Now it's shut up and back to your cubicles and working on your sprint tasks that were assigned by some PO who got his tasks from some middle management exec following the big plan.
