Turns out when you purposefully let it become infested with bots and make the system of proving who is real and who is fake confusing and backwards, it becomes known for that and slowly becomes useless to even the bot peddlers as more people leave and more bots arrive.
The bots are for people, not for other bots. So, if the bot to human ratio is skewed, they have to leave to where humans might actually see their disinformation.
Further, the kind of people that they need to see the disinformation aren’t the rubes who are still somehow on Xitter and are easily influenced by it. Those people are already captured and need less effort put into keeping them captured.

guessing that they aren’t migrating but rather expanding to try to reach those who have left the intern’s service.
