Air France high speed RTO due to missing baggage

Incident: France A343 at Fort de France on Apr 16th 2017, rejected takeoff due to ATC instruction

Quite a strange story. 130 kt RTO, 25 hours delay, a two days long AOG and an extra B-777 run because the company called ATC to instruct them to wait for some baggage. Why not cancelling their flight plan and/or sending them an ACARS message instead?
