Or an institutional Tor user like say the NSA realized a flaw in it and executed a predetermined strategy of ceasing use uniformly in order to shroud that there is a previously undetermined weakness that they just discovered.
I'm not saying that the above situation is likely, just that it is possible.

I think the better counter argument is this: Why would they even take actions which disclose the change? Why not just change the nature of their queries?
