Let's not pretend like Blizz or Bethesda will see the end of this decade anyway.

So if you're management, you face a choice: try to dump everyone now in a reorganization on a moment's notice, while it's still Biden's NLRB, or negotiate a CBA that probably bakes in substantial severance and job protections that will be expensive when they do try to reorganize for business reasons?

If it's true that the workers were likely to get dumped within the decade, then negotiating protections now actually protects them, or forces management to pay a high cost.
