Nothing wrong with you speculating. It's a bit odd, but it says "may require" as in not definitely. Most people wont reset at all. Apparently the FEMA warning doesn't say anything about restarting devices. So 99% of people won't restart.
To me it sounds like they are just prepping for the onslaught of tech support calls all at the same time. If you called them they will probably have the usual recorded message to try rebooting before you join the 4 hour queue for tech support. That doesn't mean they just did anything to your device, it's just a standard tech support thing.
Millions of devices out there, and the number of combinations of cheap chinese hardware and possibly buggy software are almost infinite. Some of these "may" have issues. Comcast is just hoping their tech support department doesn't get overloaded.
But you do you. A day without internet isn't a bad thing.
