LH says he made FM do that fault

Not so sure that pit strategy is fully decided before Q3. Fuel load is however decided before Q3. If necessary they can alter the pit strategy after Q3 by not refilling the max fuel credit. It is not against the rules to start off lighter than the start of Q3.

+ I think Steve Matchett would understand that part of F1 racing better than you or I.

I really don't see why someone would not refill all the fuel they can, after all what use to compromise your qualifying with more fuel and than start on low fuel? As far as logics go I can't see what there is to be gained this way?

If Matchett was that good he would be the strategist in an F1 team. :
I gave up a long time ago believeing what so called F1 expert journos say.
