I would have thought that the way they rolled this out was obviously so ill-advised that they wouldn't have been likely to do it, but they did. Also, they initially were going to include the self-hosted installations in this as well, but backed off due to the outcry. So even though it's also obviously a bad idea, they were provably likely to do it, because that was their explicit plan.
