It never should've gone out in the first place. Whether it was ever going to be a good idea (I do not believe so) is something that can be debated elsewhere, but it definitely was not a good idea with the current state of Bungie and Destiny 2.

Am I surprised that someone higher up in management pushed/green-lit the idea? No.

And no Bungie, you do not get brownie points for seeing the train wreck (that they were completely tone deaf enough to cause in the first place) and being like "Oh we can see that this was not bringing joy, we'll pull it... for now".
