To clarify, I think what some folks are concerned about is that they
haven't updated their statement on time. They do quarterly updates and
the update is past due.

So the canary is not doing what it's supposed to do exactly. In this
case, there is uncertainty about the canary because we have outdated
information, which is sending a mixed signal.

I'll say it again, bringing such attention to the thing that is not
there totally defeats the point.
