There are many reasons for me to handle it that way. The first and most important one is: I think if Satoshi doesn't move the coins, a re-distribution will do more good than harm. All the time there is FUD about Satoshi eventually moving his MILLIONS OF COINS and then Bitcoin crashing to 0. But a million coins is actually the current trading volume of 1-2 days. And once the coins are redistributed, this kind of FUD will be gone ... forever.


When you say "redistribution"
, are you talking about Satoshi coins being returned in some way to be mined again (if that's even possible?), or being put back into the system in some other way - although I don't see how that could be done and who would be the ones who would get a share of those coins?
I believe he means that hackers will have access to Satoshi coin with quantum computer and will share it among themselves, making the coins to go back to the market, instead of sitting idle as it's currently. Apart from this, there's no way redistribution of Satoshi bitcoin will be possible.
