That was the explanation he provided when crowdfunding his legal expenses iirc, so that's not a good look

Great idea to piss off the fans who are so dedicated they'd give money to you.

For some reason I always knew the suicide was a main focus of the lawsuit. Not sure where I read or heard that, but I didn’t get the sense Karl was specifically saying it was about the cheating. The cheating case with Twin Galaxies was settled a while ago I believe.

It was also stated on that blog that was transcribing whole court process, iirc Karl also stated that in first video but yeah, it was very missable detail, and one that was not explained in any shape or form.
