4. Abbott did that to make it look like these had all been purged recently

That was since 2021. The total included deaths, voters who moved and cancelled their registration, non citizens, felony convictions, suspended voters who never responded to corresponcence.

In a state with as many registered voters as Texas, over a 3 year period it isn't as bad as it looks.

Marc Elias did a video about it which is on You Tube. His opinion is that Abbott released these numbers just for show.

&t=523s

We also registered more voters than were purged.
