I thought the timing of the announcement was interesting. The implosion was not confirmed until the last few hours of the oxygen countdown media frenzy.

The oxygen countdown frenzy was misguided sensationalism and clickbait. That was at best an estimate, but humans love a countdown.

The timing of the announcement was based on a recovery vessel arriving at the site and very quickly finding the wreckage.

The fact that they happened to be close together is coincidence unless you can provide strong evidence otherwise.
