This is why I believe that they changed what would happen after the pushback and are trying to hide that they changed.

In reality they were probably just going to disable access to updating all along and then maybe someday delete things, but didn’t want to say exactly that.

The thing is, if images are still accessible, then they still incur egress costs for Docker, thus negating the potential cost savings from this move.

So at best, they just tanked their reputation for... minimal cost savings?

Egress is (relatively) cheap and the amount of it will dwindle over time as the images become more and more "out of date".
