If any packages fail to download apt should abort without removing any
packages, so in this case yes

it should be unlikely to end up in a state were only some packages were
downgraded, but if this did happen then ppa-purge is not going to be
clean it up later, so in this case (if it can be distinguished from exit
codes) could warn the user how to manually find and remove 'foreign'
packages and leave the ppa disabled

I suspect ppa-add really meant apt-add-repository, that was in the past
buggy when it came to re-enabling ppa's that had been commented out, but
that should be fixed these days.
