I'm not sure if I agree about it being to rest her image as much as I think it has to do with her being a "product" of avex. Over the last 15 years, she's largely done everything in her power to not be avex's sugar momma, and I think her dropping out of TV promo and other stuff was just another step.

It's sad though because it comes off like she doesn't realize people who like her aren't necessarily going to hunt her down to find out what she's doing. It's also sad because it waters down the experience of being a fan. Instead of the excitement of CMs and singles with PVs and TV performances and talk show interviews, we just sit around waiting for news. Not so exciting.
