Rem is in a coma for the entirety of Arc 4, and the volume was released a year or two after the anime ended, so I don't think that's what necessarily affected it's sales. Also, the arc in the light novel lasts as long as Arc 3 does, and just because you didn't like it, or found it slow doesn't mean no one enjoyed it. Volume 15 and even Volume 11 are both perfect examples that releasing your volume around christmas time is not something that will affect the sales of the novels. Also, Christmas while celebrated in Christmas isn't as important there as is it in North America. And whether is it a rushed development (which none of the other volumes were by the way) or not has nothing to do with whether it's released in christmas or a couple days before or after. You're making it more of a problem than it actually is. Plus, there are numerous times where the manga and light novel ended up having volumes released around the same time. It's really not big deal.
