It's not even the lack of subtlety, it's her staggering inability to understand how to keep people from defecting. Like, Ogami has very few recognizable traits in this show, but his MAIN ONE is being The Dad. (His other traits are Dated Popped Collars On Polos and Still Being The Dad.) So for her to look at his wavering commitment and decide that this is the best point to put forward an ultimatum where he has to choose between his only beloved son and a dimly-lit coven of sword cultists who are an anxiety attack away from being a Workplace Incident... like, she could not have miscalculated worse than if she told Ren he wasn't allowed to be powerful anymore. It's mind-bendingly bad management!
