That's a highly debated topic. Many swear by it. Same as the lollipop technique. I've had tremendous success with "selective" defoliation. Too much is a no brainer, but some leaves are ideal to remove, and it's a fact that the plant actually responds with growth instead of stalling.
He could be outdoor growing on the equator which would expose the plant to too much UV.

Removing fan leaves is only good if you're indoor and have a piss lights.

Removing stored energy.
Lowering perspiration.
Lower absorbtion of carbon dioxide.

Lower chlorophyll, so low lower carbon dioxide being absorbed, so less glucose being produced.

Glucose is needed for the plants to "digest" the nutrient you add/are in the soil.

Thats just the start of things.

Plants don't perspire theres no sweat, they transpire.

The amount of chlorophyll has nothing to do with the plants ability to absorb C02, just fewer leaves all covered up and over laying leaves for it to not BE absorbed. If your plants are half assed I'm betting they be needing every leaf they ever grown.

Glucose is a byproduct of photosynthesis and is energy for the plant. Mabey try molasses, feed the microbes and the plant.

Light and air are the 2 key indicators for a cannabis plant to focus energy to a flower site, otherwise they nothing more than a trickel drain from the main buds nutrient.
Piss poor light? All indoor is piss poor to natural sun, however PAR is what matters and not every light is equal.

For someone who got pretty bold about assumptions, you made quite a few yourself.

Best of luck OP

I didn't say the amount of chlorophyll effects the absorbsion of carbon dioxide.

The leaves do.

Less leaves = less absorbsion of co2.

Less CO2 less glucose production.

Less glucose production = lowers the ability for the plant to absorb nutrients (that you've also removed from the plant by removing the leaves).

You also said plants sweat, so there's that.
