I haven't met him personally so I can't tell if he's actually done any wrongdoing intentionally or not, but I do know for a fact he has spoken several times about retiring due to the mental toll competition has had on him and several colleagues of his, as far as back as 2017.
And if you take a look at it, it's something that it's not talked enough on the sport circles. In cycling specially, if someone becomes suspect of doping every "fan" will immediately point their fingers at them - unless it's one of your favorite cyclists. It happens everywhere online, from Facebook to Twitter to the rampant tribalism of r/peloton - immediately you'll become public enemy #1 no matter what. Cycling has had a bad story with doping and if the pressure to give results is not big enough, the stress of being labelled as a doper is a new whole level. I still can recall people throwed urine to Froome at some stages in the Tour de France.
