It's all relative. DIS has 200k+ employees. Thousands of employees could quite literally be less than 1% of their workforce.

Is it reasonable for a company to make a change that effects 0.5-1% of their workforce? I think yes. How about 2%? At what point do the lines get blurred in your judgment?

As a person in modern society, I am personally pretty tired of being treated and thought of as a percentage. So I don't like to think of others as percentages.

The problem with framing this as a threshold question is that it relies on Sorites Paradox to work. That invalidates it in my mind because it rules out 0, 100, and every number in between. There's no way to rationalize justification for a particular numerical threshold from non-numerical qualifiers.
