The point I think you are missing is that Macmillan is saying that this is going to be a new policy. So the fact they didn't lower prices when they did not have a dynamic pricing policy does not mean they won't lower prices when it comes into effect.
I don't see why it's so hard to conceive of the possibility that Macmillan's behavior may change after they say they are going to do something different.
Just because Macmillan followed their policy of keeping ebook prices high does not mean they will not follow a new policy of lowering them over time when it comes into effect.
