If he is Satoshi, and what he's saying about being forced to reveal his identity now is true, it would make sense to provide the minimum that the threateners would accept, knowing that the community wouldn't buy it. That video is really odd. (FWIW I don't believe this claim is or isn't true, I'm waiting for more info.)
Perhaps the real Satoshi can no longer hide as before but rather wants to hide in the group of wannabe-Satoshis by appearing to have been dismissed as a fake Satoshi.
This is plain untrue. As explained in The Economist article, this Wright guy began approaching a (well-known and respected) author about writing is biography months before the first outing in December. There would be nothing to tell in his biography if he's not Bitcoin's inventor.
He may be or not be Bitcoin's inventor (I strongly suspect he isn't) but in both cases he really wanted to be known, at least starting in mid-2015.
