I would have felt more confident if they had come right out and made a new statement to the effect that they never intended nor do they intend to implement mandatory DRM.

Referring back to a previous statement could be taken to mean they are not in a position to make a new statement yet so what they said previously stands until they formalise the details of their DRM plan. It could also just mean that they thought the first statement was evidence enough and the didn't need to provide any further clarification.

I truly hope it is the latter, not the former.
