I agree with the premise of getting to it eventually but canadiancow 's wording was: "They said later in 2021, so I have no idea why you think that's not going to happen."

My interpretation of English grammar is that in the quoted sentence "that" refers to what preceeded it - i.e. "later in 2021" rather than them killing the offering altogether.
