So I know you're ignoring this but I'd really like a serious reply. If a higher-up wanted it removed then tell him (or her) that people are complaining that it's gone.

I would appreciate it because it's a pain to have to click around just to get back to the Asylum. The dropdown list just makes it much more convenient.

The people that post in the Asylum are your most loyal customers. They are the ones that are most likely to pay for premium and making it hard to find the forum that this group wants to post in makes it inconvenient. Most people that find things inconvenient stop doing that thing.
The bottom line is, Make the customers that pay the bills happy and the rest will fall into place.
Now, If the upper management comes back with numbers to prove this wrong I can’t help you.
