Ford did the same thing last time. They released a new body style, the Camaro came, and shortly after Ford put the 5.0 in the Mustang. It's the same plan of attack all over again.

I read that there were engineering issues with the 5.0 that delayed the release until the 2011 model year. They didn't specifically hold back on the Coyote.
