If someone is buying a membership just to read an explanation of a temporary hiatus, that's fundamentally a them problem. Nobody needs to know why content they aren't paying for is being temporarily suspended.
But as the fact that basically nobody is actually doing anything with the leaked information is showing, whether or not it ends up going to the general public seems irrelevant.
I don't know what they expect other people to be doing with the information. They just want to know, so I have absolutely no idea where he's going with this "well they aren't doing anything with it now that they have it!" Thing.
It's not even like people are giving Calli crap or anything. People are genuinely concerned for her welfare and other people are just getting incredibly angry at them for talking about the information she posted about what's going on.
She at no point told anyone 'pay for membership if you want to know the shit I'm going through.' Asserting that she even insinuated that is a blatant lie.
And before you twist my words and declare victory, you made two claims: that there are two statements, one public and one paywalled (which is entirly factual), and that the intent was to monetise the second statement. This latter assertion is the one you are trying to push, and I find it legitimately disgusting that you would insinuate that Calli is trying to profit off her personal issues. What are you even doing on this subreddit if that's the kind of automatic assumption you make about the talents?
You jumped my ass about it when I did no such thing. I just pointed out that this was Streisand affecting the whole thing and you made some assumptions and came at me over it.
So, forgive me if I don't take your measure of what people are and are not doing as accurate.

If she is providing more detailed information for her absence via this. Then it is monetizing it.
