It’s only stupid if you think it’s being done in good faith

No, it can be both stupid and not in good faith. If it wasn't stupid, they would have done it during a weekday so they didn't look like morons who don't understand what a weekend is. This isn't like firing on a Friday to avoid the news cycle. This is something that was obviously going to backfire on Musk.

If they didn't want to look like idiots they would have done it on a Wednesday so people would be panicking about getting it done before the weekend and the general populace would have seen it as government workers not checking email for two working days. The timing they picked was guaranteed failure from the moment they pushed send on a Saturday.
