I'm not sure if that is really what it is. It sounds like Janus Films are going to continue to do more theatrical acquisitions and distributions and they want to be able to put those films out quickly. In the last two years, two of their acquisitions got Oscar nominations or wins. Separation of the operations makes sense.
But yes, those films you mention in particular seem like they'd fit very much into the main collection...
