the "Bioware" brand is still valuable (somehow) so they are doing a ship of Theseus thing where they replace all the idiotsInsanity that EA still isn't shutting them down, Bioware must have naughty pics of Andrew Wilson or something.
To me this reads like EA did a culling and a shot across the bow. If by some miracle ME5 actually comes out it's over for them if it fails.
unfortunately the original people behind Bioware left, so it's just a costume
