Hughes was a prankster, he did stuff to be funny. If his Umbrella doesn't have a sense of humor, bye bye jokes. The Umbrella functions by creating jokes and pranks, I'm assuming. Remove that, it wouldn't act maliciously, it just wouldn't act at all. Besides, I don't think trying to "out prank" them would help. Not only do I not know of how that would work as an artifact effect, but there's the potential that that artifact only creates more dangerous pranks, and/or escalates Hughes' Umbrella's pranks in its attempt to win this proposed "prank war".
