That's an interesting hypothesis and seems to make sense. I was also wondering why he would pardon people who were never arrested or detained. Felt a bit dystopian thought crime-esque, but there's likely some sort of logic behind it.

The logic is preventing you from being arrested tomorrow for your use last month. If he only pardoned those who were already arrested and/or convicted there would be nothing stopping the prosecution of people who just hadn't yet been arrested.
