Show an example of a team ever moving a player in that scenario at any other point in history.

Hasn’t happened. You can fault Tre for not moving Gaudreau, Monahan, or a guy like Backlund sooner, but trying to say they should have moved Gio after 18-19 is 100% using hindsight to fit a narrative.
You'd think a team that has been mediocre for so long and that was 2 - 12 in there last 14 playoff games, may re-evaluate their approach and try and go against the norm. Hindsight is all we have at this point, the team is bad and the immediate future looks bleak. Management over estimating the roster is a main reason the organization finds themselves in this situation. By the way my narrative around Giordano hasn't changed since we lost to Colorado, just my opinion.
