Guaranteed this was some MBA who realized they could save money by going offshore. Every MBA goes through this phase. I'll save the company millions! Quality drops to zero, bugs go out MBA is promoted out, and the actual pms are left to figure out how the hell to fix this

If that's the case it's a particularly stupid MBA. Between the companies part of social security and healthcare, mandatory vacation days, virtually unlimited sick days, maternity leave, paternity leave, the ridiculous amount of public holidays in Bavaria, and stronger enforcement of overtime pay, the effective cost per working hour in Munich is not going to be much cheaper.

Google has laid off their Python Foundation team and asked them to train their replacements who will be in the Munich office.
-
In this situation why would anyone actually train their replacement?
-
Severance.

Because a lot of people depend on references from their previous job, including their managers and such, for the next one. Burning that bridge because you wouldn’t spend your last few weeks at the company doing what was asked of you is not a good look. It makes you appear difficult/like you hold grudges. It also might cost you things like your severance.
If it’s that important to you to flip a middle finger to your previous employer then go ahead, but I think most people will decide the cons vastly outweigh the pros. Especially since that person will get trained anyway so you can’t even meaningfully change things.

Depends on how much Google pays for this, but, yeah, I don't think the ex-employees net-benefit.

Bold move.

Poor Google. They would love to do the right thing but they just don't quite have enough money to pay their loyal employees what they're worth, so they have to fuck them over instead.
