Yes, because multiple big popular streamers have said that it's a net positive if you can keep the moral high ground, as you will come back and have more viewers than before. Judging from your comment, i believe you think he has the moral high ground. The ban itself doesn't need to be justified to say that he can (and most certainly will) profit from this ban. The next logical step is to think about streamers provoking (short) bans where twitch looks dumb and hacker news discusses them when it normally wouldn't. Was that the case here? No idea. Is it especially unlikely, I don't think so.
