That does seem likely, the intended No Deal being used more to coerce MPs into actually signing a version of May's Withdrawal Agreement. It doesn't quite line up with alienating 20+ MPs and losing every damn vote however.



It is possible that having tried to coerce support and not getting it they had little choice but to follow through with the threats.

It does look like a miscalculation.
