Pretty much 0.0%. Phil would be losing ~$750 if he gifted himself subs, and he doesn't see any real retention on them, so it's not like it's a sound investment. It also undercuts his "woe is me i am so poor" line since regulars in the chat know about where his subcount usually is (450-550) and will, even in their lizard brains, recognize that having 1300+ subs suddenly means Phil got a bunch of money.
Could you give me the odds on a cat fishing empire trying to blackmail DSP? Honestly, after that saga, I don't think you can give any theory a 0%. He, himself being responsible solely for these subs? No of course not. In collusion with someone to give him money in such a way as to not raise his taxes this year, but move it to a February pay out? That's at least a 30% chance.
