Unless one believes the very absurd idea that the entirety of the pop-up store was negotiated, planned, and settled with outside business interests in the scant half-a-day between Pikamee encountering resistance to streaming the wizard game and the pop-up store being announced...
Since it's tiring to see misinformation:
VOMS PARK pop-up store was announced to the public on Feb 10. Per graduation statement, said VOMS PARK was planned with the knowledge that Pikamee would graduate in March, and would be part of sending her off.
HogLegs came out Feb 10.
it literally just has no relevance. I wouldn't presume to speculate how long the planning and business negotiation did take, but surely at least a week? But point is she was planning to wrap it up long before the controversy ever became a thing. That's basically undeniable fact.

You’re right, they couldn’t plan this whole thing within half-a-day, they only started to. So Pikamee’s harassment could’ve very well been a factor to her graduation. Because she didn’t just get harassed for a day, and neither did they just plan the whole event in one day.
