In fact, as has been pointed out, the newspapers all make reference to the pictures for the cards being taken in early to mid 1910, that the cards were going to be known soon, and that the cabinets, which were printed after T210 cards, were already on the market “some time ago” in December 1910. How does any of this suggest a 1911 release date?

I already said that I think the newspaper clip suggests they
could have been distributed in 1911. I don't see why the sportswriter would be bringing up the fact that he "appears on Old Mill cigarette pictures" the prior year, you disagree and that's fine.
The pictures were taken in early 1910 but they still have to get them to the lithographers who have to make the plates and print them then they have to to be packed and shipped this all had to take months to do. Putting them out before or around the start of a season seems like a better time to start distribution.
