The reason is he says a backwards message implying he'd return and a book has confirmation that it's meant to basically give another chance eventually, the author stated while most the book isn't canon due to it being a "chose your adventure" that one of them was indeed canon with implication that it was the one about Bill's message and past. Basically canon leaves a hint of return, one non-canon basically saying alive and then a book with one confirmed canon event backing it up on the message meaning.
