Ench - please check the Record thread on here for some facts and reliable sources that you seem to be looking for. Then come here if you want to dissect any of those because the Record thread is kept discussion free.

I had already read the record thread, thank you. I went back and read the quotes again in case I had missed something. I don't see anything substantial that answers my first post.
There is one comment made in someone's 'youtube notes'.

Even if this comment was true, it still doesn't mean that he wouldn't be in the band even if he had agreed to the tour dates. Lindsey most likely did want to tour, and FM wanted to tour, but they didn't agree on details.
Also, Kristen Buckingham talks about a 1 year delay.

W]ell that's just the point, he didn't do anything beyond asking for a 1yr tour delay or asking to do his own solo tour at the same time so that a delay wouldn't be needed. Stevie just decided she wanted him out of her life and that meant out of the band. That's why so many fans have turned away from the band, and why so many Stevie fans have turned away from Stevie. [H]e didn’t ask for any such delay. Ironically, they are starting later now than what they had planned with Lindsey. Cruelest move I’ve ever seen. Lindsey did not deserve any of it.

Looking through the comments by Mick, there is repeated mentioning of the inability to come to an agreement about touring. Which is backed up by Kristen's comment.
As posted up above, and supported by both sides, there were negotiations about touring, and these did not progress to a resolution, and then the other members (including Stevie) decided to go on without Lindsey. Is any of this paragraph in doubt?
Nothing in that means that had Lindsey agreed to the tour dates that the other members wanted, how they wanted, that he still wouldn't have been able to tour. Even if the conspiracy theories that this is just Stevie's doing were true, it appears to me that there was a time that by being more agreeable, that Stevie would have toured with Lindsey.
And, that was my question in the OP. So, I don't agree that the Record thread, or any other sources I've been able to find, invalidate or answer my question.
