"It's been a good week for Microsoft's documentation efforts as the company achieved important milestones with regulators on both sides of the Atlantic. US antitrust authorities signed off on Vista and IE7 and announced that Microsoft was making good progress in its efforts to document certain server protocols in Windows. In Europe, where Microsoft has encountered more problems and increased fines over the state of its documentation, the company got a rare bit of good news as the European Commission completed its initial review of the revised documents."

making them release the version is still going to cost them money. Its not going to sell well, and MS is going to absorb the costs.
By claiming loudly in the press that there was an irremediable defect in XPn MS guaranteed that it would not sell well. This benefits them by requiring them to make fewer copies of the product while allowing them to FUD about how no one wants a product of theirs that they have themselves dissed.
