The problem with Doge was not that it was inefficient.... It's that it damaged a whole lot of essential infrastructure, exfiltrated a bunch of data, and generally destabilized a lot of essential systems.
Doing so but more efficiently would not have improved it.
There's a wide gulf between "nothing was disrupted" and "reenorap isn't aware of anything being disrupted". It's also different from "reenorap did not value the things that were disrupted".
Here's a single counterfactual to your statement that nothing was disrupted: approximately 1,500 grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities were cancelled abruptly.
I will have to let my wife and many folks she worked with who were illegally terminated, then brought back into uncertain limbo and so on throughout the year that someone on the internet is certain that none of this happened and 2025 was just a bad dream. Their projects and programs still exist and have been progressing well the same as they were 18 months ago.
