What do you think are their chances of doing, versus dying? It seems to me that even if they die, they could just shrink back their scope and achieve sufficient concentration of talent to stay alive, thrive, and even become the flagship for a smaller number of the fields that you are describing, for example focusing on devices and then they would be able to take the lead and then expand later, if they are able.
