I don't get the impression that he was denied a review unit, just that his embargo clears later. The Youtubers don't seem even to have been given a unit at all — just access to them in Apple facilities.

He got a review unit 24 hours ago, per his most recent post.

Right, so the youtubers were just sort of teaser reviews. I do think it's disdainful, and slightly obnoxious/elitist, but I don't read it as personal bitterness.
