It is the Goose that laid the golden egg kind of story, that only a publisher with an ironclad unbreakable contract with the goose, and up to the eyebrows in debt would consider IMO. But maybe this is the case?

I am not saying my scenario is correct, but it seems unlikely that there was no plan here. Perhaps the publisher only agreed to take the book in the first place on the understanding that it was leaked at some point in time? But this leak seems too convenient.
