To me "ill" and "unwell" are different. I think illness I see as something you can get better from, temporary, whereas dementia very much isn't something you get better from. I dunno, translation probably plays a role here anyway.
Yeah that's what I said, it's only going to be speculation and the best read here is that what they meant with their explanation is actually some sort of dementia thing. The "not feeling well" or "came down with an illness" different interpretations of the official statement sound like someone having a headache or poorly tummy and would involve that person very willingly leaving the room (with help). But what we see in the video is a pretty agitated man needing to be gently be forcefully removed, who with some coaxing becomes willing. Reads less like illness and more like a dementia turn to me.
Kinda repeating myself but wanted to word it differently I guess because my original wording seems to have rubbed some people the wrong way?

Yeah of course we're never going to really know the truth playing this absurd game of broken telephone
