The cold Fishman style logic in my mind screams out that it's simply a bid to create a lingering point of contention to hang in the off day of content so that the Lia product can better occupy the mind of the invested viewer and retain cognitive claim to roll into a strong Thursday return. So deep in the cups of Lia that this shrewd, tawdry business tact would almost be preferable to the implication that someone, something, any thing could be capable of taking joy away from our Lia. There is frantic bargaining between the two extremes, either a genuine emotion or a mechanical content hook, leveraging the streaming acumen of the performer against her own parasociality toward the viewer and the, generously projected investment she might have in rousing some emotion from putting her weakness and loss on display. The generosity of such a concession creates a soothing middle ground between the dissonance causing gap of either extreme trying not to be caught vulnerable one's self in being "the mark" while at the same time not trying to be the hard hearted detached cynic. The best part of the malware is that when she turns off stream she keeps playing the game with her Operators. A whole day now to process her and interpret her intentions and spiral deeper and deeper into the malware.
