your noticing the notice and them resuming tweets are asynchronous. If we want to bring some logic inferences the only thing we can say is that their next tweet must say something about restarting to tweet.

Actually no, the only thing we could hold them up to is that before any tweet on the usual topics there should be a notice that normal tweets have begun again. It would be perfectly reasonable to now defend their position without a prior notice that they are going to also defend their position.

I’m assuming the notice exists independently of whether I see it or not. If the notice is a tweet then submitting the tweet happens before anyone could read it and the account has resumed tweeting before giving notice.

If the position is “we won’t tweet again until we do” then this is a meaningless announcement because that’s the default position of every twitter account.

The reason you are deriving a meaningless statement is because “we won’t tweet again until we do” is a terrible synopsis of that tweet. How about "we suspend how usual operation until further notice"?

If tomorrow morning they were to comment a justification of their choice that would still be outiside of the normal rust-related news the account concern itself and thus allowed.

Treating languages as naive logic statements is doing a disservice to both language and logic.

If it's doing a disservice to language and logic, why are you engaging with it talking about what would be "thus allowed"? Because it's fun, is why. I'm not confused by it, I'm taking their word as literal and asked a non-serious question that would go well with a thinking_face emoji.

Well the reason on my part is quite simple: I am quite pedantic on semantics :)

Another reason is that I would say I do not particularly like the part "let's take words literally stripping the intended meaning", my intention was at least to show an opposition to such interpretation.

If you were having just fun then don't take this as a criticism, but I will continue to oppose such interpretations :)
