Last night I sent a reply to Joan (see below), but it was never posted as I had reached my 3 post limit for the day and I had completely forgotten about that rule.
Note that the link below is from a more recent press release that was issued in response to the uproar caused by APA's 'take-down notice of earlier this summer (see http://retractionwatch.com/2017/06/14/researchers-protest-publishers-orders-remove-papers-websites/).

However, any posted manuscripts must include a note linking to the final published article, the authoritative document".
