Does anybody else have a feeling like it’s a New Coke situation?
Drive it into the ground, then a year later come back with a shadow CEO and say “We’re back and better than ever”…profit.

Nope. I think it's a "billionaire who isn't half as smart as he thinks" situation. It's his shoddily built submarine, ready to fail catastrophically at any moment.
After all, has "New Coke" ever worked for a website? Once those users have found somewhere else, they're never coming back.
Get people to start missing it like Twinkies.
