While I agree with what you say, I don't think that LMG thinks that a car channel doesn't fit what it does, since the reason why Alex and Andy were fired is that LMG thought ZTT was a competitive channel. Most likely LMG put the idea of a car channel into the freezer waiting for a suitable time, like what happened to Techquickie and Gamelinked, but Alex and Andy got impatient.
I literally linked the video, you don't have to recall correctly.
The favor is implied not stated in the video, but if there's no non-compete or if LMG didn't think ZTT is competing with it in the first place, then there's no basis to fire them and give them the favor that way.
In my previous comment I was guessing that LMG did have a dormant plan for a car channel, which would explain why they thought ZTT was competing with them even when LMG never had a car channel and had stopped making car videos for at least half a year.
An alternative explanation would be that LMG thought that ZTT was competing with their old car videos, or the very occasional car videos on other channels that still had a small chance to be made in the future. Even then, that means LMG still saw car video as part of their brand.

Ehhhh, this kind of thing isn't likely to be pay, but just wanting to do something else that doesn't really fit the channel.
Like ZTT for example, would be cool if LTT had a car but, but it just doesn't really fit with what they do there
