If I could make decisions for Warp I would ABSOLUTELY release download links to preorderers as soon as it leaked. I imagine impatient people who have ordered or intend to order will download the leak if they think their purchased release isn't coming for a few days. Even if you torrent the thing and close the file as soon as you finish, you will be seeding. That means more nodes spreading the thing. If you release files to purchasers, you inoculate a group of listeners, and the files will stop there. Now, maybe this group of listeners is very small, but I think it's possible they will drive the early spread, which, of course, will grow quickly and establish a base from which the large amounts of less-interested folks can download freely. Of course none this may matter because, the internet, but Warp should at least endeavor to please its dedicated customers because those are the folks keeping purchased music alive.
