This is about some combination of cost to replace Perez after resigning vs. choosing a teammate Max can live with.

No way Checo is better than Carlos and they could have signed Carlos for next year without a cost to boot Checo didn't, the only reason for that is Max would get upset and it's not that he loves Checo, certainly not after that Monaco.

Just seems high risk with Max being offered all sorts elsewhere and RB falling off their stellar advantage.
