This is an added expense on top of what was already planned. Now something else won't be done, or it will be passed on to the consumer or perhaps their employees won't get as big of a raise or a raise at all because of this.

You find this hilarious, but do you really even shop there? How many times have you been there in the last year?

Target?  Are you joking?  My wife shops there regularly.  We have two small children.  

Given the fact that budgets are drawn up years in advance for remodeling, they don't actually specify what the exact re-modeling will be in the future just the budget.  This fell inside the budget allocated and cost them no more money than they planned on spending.

The rest of your post is simply unwarranted fears.  This consolidation will actually end up saving them money in the long run given they don't have to create two separate sections and market separately to different genders.
