The hacked message is too intelligently-written for it to have come from his team.

By that you mean still written to a 3rd grader's reading level so the dummies might understand a sentence or two.

The message is still far too cohesive for Trump's team, though, so maybe reading level alone isn't enough.

This has been up for so long that I doubt it’s a hack: it’s more likely that Trump stiffed his web developer.
