No, I don't think that's what's happening here. I mean, I don't care particularly about Trent Reznor, but that seems like a pretty sensible reaction to seeing your opening band (that has a history of being flaky) break up just a few weeks before the tour.

The most sensible reaction would probably be "Best luck to Death Grips, sorry for the inconvenience to those of you who have bought tickets, we'll have a replacement soon."
I would characterize that as "charitable" more than "sensible".

Band breakups can happen for a million different reasons, and sometimes they can't wait till a tour is over or whatever. We have no idea if "we hit our peak creatively" is the truth or just something they're saying because they don't want to broadcast private drama. Insulting a band for breaking up is kicking them while they're down.
If they didn't have a history of not fulfilling professional obligations, people would be a lot more inclined to be sympathetic. Even if "we hit our peak creatively" is the "truth", it doesn't matter, it's another bunch of fuckups loving up again. Reznor's point that he shouldn't have relied on a group of unreliable fuckups is pretty on-point.
