I have a possibly new take on the "no deals"/"your choice to know" series of Q posts.
It started with Q saying that only a portion of the information would be released. I think the original ratio was 60/40. Later Q said 80/20 if I recall correctly. I at least assumed this was a result of push back from anons demanding everything be released. What if it wasn't? What if the real message was "we will start by releasing a portion of the truth. You will have to push to get the rest to be released."
Under this scenario POTUS is playing a role ("you are watching a movie"). "We have released what can be released." Then the populace has to demand more to give him political/operational cover.
In other words Q agreeing to release a larger portion of information was not reactive but instructive. (picrel: PLAY THE GAME WITH US)
