He was probably keen to avoid any inflammatory/dramatic language, particularly a phrase that would amplify or validate his weaker position relative to Her Royal Highness.
"I have sadly taken leave of my band of 43 years"

That's a man telling us that he was decommissioned, while doing his best to retain his own sense of dignity and self-value, and avoiding the situation where he would be discrediting the value of his career in the band.
