If I were TfL, I'd leave the signage as it is and then replace it when the
ELL opens. There's no point telling passengers they now have a LO service
when there are no LO trains - details of the management of the station
matters to relatively few people. And no point making up new signs for a
short period only to have to change them again. Though a bit of paint or
sticky-backed plastic seems to have sufficed for Underground network map
changes as can be seen at various stations.

Sure - that goes without saying really, I suppose should have said 'provided
with but covered until the ELL opens'. But will they replace them with 'LO
only' diagrams is the question.
