Don't ask me how the television executive's mind works - I'm just a lowly fan! :)
It is a big pity for Atlantis that they've cancelled SG-1, especially since they were building the 'gate-bridge' from Pegasus to the Milky Way - it would have given an interesting opportunity for semi-regular crossovers with blends and reblends of the characters in different situations.
Whether TPTB would have taken up those opportunities is another situation entirely.
To be honest, I'd give SGA until the 100th episode, after that, it's all up in the air. Showtime only kept SG1 for five years before putting it up for Skiffy.
