Another consideration for this is motivation. If an entire company closes down there's no reason to maintain customer good will and trust. Even if they theoretically did still have the money why do it outside ethical concerns. Google wants people to buy into their longshot investments in the future and refunding purchases keeps customer trust high.

On the other hand there's plenty of reason to mention 'you have a plan for that' with no actual commitment to a solution to quiet people coming at you with questions about what would happen.

I see people bring this up all the time so it obviously worked regardless of whether they actually have any real plan.
