Considering that the article itself states that an estimated 30% of horseshoe crabs die during the procedure, before even accounting for post-release deaths due to any trauma, I think you might be onto something.
Who would've known draining ~60% of a horseshoe crab's blood would cause some of them to become fucked up. If you drained 60% of a person's blood, I'd reckon the same thing would happen.
