There's a number of plausible scenarios:

1. It takes more time for the rot to show.

2. Twitter devs were amazing at building really solid software

3. The culture of twitter was really that 1 person did the work and 9 others watched, enough of the productive devs stayed.

4. The effects of rot are overestimated.

I have no insight into how twitter worked as a company before Musk's takeover though, and I still think it is quite likely major problems will occur in the next couple of months.
