Nissan needs a place to house their upcoming premium EVs, and using Infiniti for that purpose would probably be less risky and more economical than coming up with some new brand.

I agree that all (or most, at any rate) of the current Infiniti models could disappear today and no one would care or even notice. Theoretically, they can use that fact to their advantage. Sales volume might even be approaching levels such that there's no real point in trying to walk the tight rope between growing EV sales while not hurting ICE sales. Just let the latter dwindle as they have been. Nissan-Renault has some valuable EV tech and could potentially build a compelling lineup, including premium EVs. Might as well go all in at this point.
