I knew that leak was fake as soon as he said Temporal Diamond and Spacial Pearl, those have been the fan names for hypothetical Diamond and Pearl remakes for as long as people have been seriously discussing Sinnoh remakes, I guess since ORAS came out. It's so clearly a joke that it's hard to believe anyone actually took him seriously.
I'll be mildly upset if they release any more Galar games but not nearly as much as I was with Gen 7, with Gen 7 they REALLY threw me for a curve ball and pulled a "bait and switch" and effectively stole money from me. With Gen 6 I only bought Y because I was fully expecting a Z Version to be released in 2015 or 2016 after ORAS, once SM were announced, I did in fact buy X because I do like to have 2 games of every region, for example, as a kid I owned Ruby and Emerald as well as Diamond and Platinum, only later did I acquire copies of Sapphire and Pearl, but anyways, nonetheless, I try to only stick to one paired version and then buy the third version as my second game, so I waited and waited for Z and it didn't show up, despite the signs CLEARLY being there that Z should've been a real game, the anime went from XY to XY&Z, Zygarde had a MAJOR role in the anime plot and all the signs pointed to Zygarde playing a prominent role in a Z Version, I believe Z was even trademarked, similar to Grey and Delta Emerald. So when SM came out, I was a little upset we didn't get the Kalos experience we deserved, but at the same time, Sun and Moon felt like relatively complete games, and the incompletion of the Necrozma story felt like something they could shove into the next games like they did with Zygarde in SM. When we got not one but TWO third versions I was furious because I bought both titles fully expecting there not to be a third version since they hadn't done one since Platinum, but then they went and made not sequels, not one third version, but two third versions. So thus far I've only bought Sword and honestly, Sword has satisfied me enough and I don't even think Galar should have a third version now. Move onto Sinnoh remakes and then Johto remakes a year or two after.
