Longya is pushed back because Tianyi V4 was showcased at Bilibili Macro Link this past July. SHN does not like to release too many news at once because it risks overshadowing one of their Vocaloids with another. It's even worse if one of them was Tianyi because she's the most popular and people are more likely to pay attention to her rather than the others (unless the competition was Ling, then they're pretty even). Longya needs the attention he could get because he, Qingxian, and Moke were not very popular in the first place if you compare them to Tianyi and Ling.

Likewise, if they release Longya news now, that means Tianyi V4 won't have news for a bit either. It's "one or the other".

If they release news of both at the same time, it's like they're asking for one of their Vocaloids to fail. Does that make sense? Yup.
