Even if that were true, they doubled down on their decision:
"Hi Chris, Thanks for reaching out. We've removed you from our email list."
That is not acknowledging they made a wrong decision here, it's an attempt to re-frame what they did as as simple opt-in/opt-out mailing list business.
It's not that hard either:
"This shouldn't have happened. We're looking into it. We're sorry (and here's cake for your trouble)." Not this "I'm sorry you feel sad because I ran over your cat (but not for running it over)".
