It's not my opinion, it is fact. There was a reason he was suspended, and it is not his phone number not being attached to his account.

Also, I didn't say anything about leading reason.

> it is fact

No, it's a hasty generalization[1] where personal experience is assumed to match other cases.

Of course Google could have simply stated the reason for the suspension clearly, if they weren't so reliably opaque in support and service management issues,

So perhaps you will care to elaborate this a bit more?
