I have the same question, but add is there no way to make it appear as though B is the one cheating in order to pull off this move as a "scam".
I'm in fact not sure if what you quoted is accurate. If instead the best that A can do is post the "true" .75/1.25 version.

That would make sense. I hope someone can clarify and confirm this.

AFAIK A now has a secret which they can use to take all the funds after the old state tx is broadcast. This exchange of secrets when agreeing the new state is what means old states are not useable: both A and B now have a secret from each other which lets them take ALL the channel funds if an old state is broadcast.
That sound right?
