The problem is that it seems to be an A/B testing thing:

So only if you were "selected" for their experiments, your account was nerfed.

But the claim here is "the models are nerfed before a release", not "they A/B test quants / efforts". If it were A/B testing, it doesn't really make sense to correlate it to release windows at all.
