Its interesting, people always need to personify this kind of decisions to blame or excuse someone.

PS : I say that with curiosity, no personal offense, i always feel the need to justify myself on the net ;)

Do you honestly think he was behind the decisions to close the studios. Closing 8 studios at one time is massive. Sure Sony has shut down a studio here or there but never on such massive scale. This signals a massive shift in direction and Phil Spencer said he was about growing 1st party studios not shrinking them. I think this was a decision not made by him.

I don't know who took this decision, i just see the result : studios are closed. It's the only fact we know. What i mean is does it really matter who was potentially behind it ?

But now i know what was important for you, it doesn't match with what Phil Spencer said ant that's true. May be it will be more difficult for some people to trust him. But from the beginning, and that's also true for Nintendo and Sony, it's just PR from an employee.

All we can do is wait for official announcements and release dates.
