Doing collabs, shows, and other projects with the other livers, and helping them with editing and such, is a great way to help out the other livers, both in terms of the quality of the content she helps them create and also the happiness they get from having her as a friend. And by limiting her help to projects which would happen regardless of whether or not she participates in any way, Niji gets no direct financial benefit from her helping the other livers behind the scenes
And to top it off, they can't legally fire her for not streaming - not only is she helping out the other livers with their own streams and projects, but there are a few JP livers who have been on "hiatus" or on actual hiatus for longer than she's been in the company, who have put in a combined effort over the duration of their respective years-long hiatuses that is less than what Petra did over just the past week, and who are still nominally "active" and in good disciplinary standing with the company
tldr it's sabotage via malicious compliance
