Kojima was Supposedly too Expensive for Konami

That would actually be understandable. Konami isn't Activision or EA, they don't have infinite pockets. I wouldn't blame them for parting ways with Kojima. Let him go somewhere else that can afford to have a rockstar developer on staff, or better yet, let him open his own studio.

The part that is difficult to understand is how they've handled the whole thing.

No its not. When you consider Kojima seemed to not give a damn about the Mile stones and delays, its easy to see Konami getting fed up. Kojima makes the same regardlesss; Konami doesnt. 

What is that "no it's not" supposed to be in reference to?
