Pixar isn't their modern cash cow, it's marvel and star wars. The Marvel movies have already gave them profits on the billions they spent on the company, and it probably won't take long for star wars to make returns on the 4 billion they paid george lucas. Especially considering lucasarts also has indiana jones. They also just reteleased a lot of the old lucasarts titles on good old games and since universal does not own park rights to lucasarts (unlike marvel) disney can promote and sell merch of it in their parks.
Like I said I think maybe the creative teams know about the fanbase, but the CEO's don't. Bob Iger is a very busy man, and I doubt the shareholders really care either.
Why do we fall? So that we can learn to pick ourselves back up again.
