Because people are going to get the patch eventually and there is no use in raising the people expectations and causing the inevitable when failing to deliver. We should have seen this long coming since the game ever got delayed. Just let the people be surprised when it goes live. I do know what ETA means but if you're really going to estimate the time then stay off placing the date and just let people know the time of month/week when they can expect the particular product. Specifying the estimated date leads to people believing it as a deadline and thus creating unnecessary heat when it fails to fulfill their expectations.
Ross shares that kind of thing because he knows there are also adult people at this site who know how to take all this kind of thing with a pinch of salt and not go mentally AWOL when things go slightly differently....the only naieve thing Ross does is to forget there are a lot of naieve people here as well....
