Keep in mind graduating like this isn't even a voluntary option for most of Hololive. Especially the not so subtle nudge wink wink that she's kson and will be streaming on kson.
Imagine Kanata asking for this tomorrow. They'd say no. Probably tell her if she wants out now she has to quit, no love month for her.
Coco's situation was an extreme situation. And she was a massive star. Hololive can't save face while blacklisting her for quitting due to all the bullshit she's had to go through. But they can if it were Kanata or the like.
To me it's fairly obvious that this was mutually beneficial for both parties. Obviously I doubt both parties are entirely happy with the outcome, or methods, but Coco definitely got what she wanted.
