Totally.

I suspect that Meta had some R&D engineers code a twitter clone years ago and just kept it around for a day like today

Twitter was valuable because it--for whatever reason--was a community unlike other places on the internet. Not because coding a microblog is some impossible feat of software engineering.

Coming in and immediately-first-thing-before-you-even-unpack destroying that community was a choice. Either a choice based in incompetence or corruption. They look the same from the outside.
