The drop in OI is the result of investors closing their long calls, not market makers closing their short calls. Just look at the volume and price action on 01/26 (indicative of increased demand for calls, not increased supply of calls). That volume created a surge in OI, which then reverted back the next day. Market makers don't care, they are gamma and delta neutral (hedged).
