Well, considering the phone calls with the apollo dev, his trustworthiness is already shot. I would be very surprised if this didn't affect revenue seeing how there's thousands of people not buying awards now. That's not even getting into ad views.
Due to his untrustworthy behavior, I can't say I'd be surprised if he leaked the memo himself, purposely including the deflection of revenue not being impacted or such.
Sounds a bit conspiracy theorist, but I would certainly be unsurprised.
Leaked? Ha! Let's call the memo what it is: a press release. A carefully crafted one full of deflections and to make VCs and future investors happy (no revenue impact!) while also allowing him to play the victim (you're in danger!)
