It's also common to re-evaluate business deals after major acquisitions. Musk buying Twitter dramatically changes the business perception, and that's what matters to advertisers. Twitter can't even begin to try and claim it doesn't, just look at Musk's tweets leading into it and directly after. The entire purpose of his purchase was to fundamentally change it, he said so himself.
