They added "We are experiencing an issue with Google Cloud infrastructure components" at the top, but everything is still green. Are they unaware of which components have issues?
I think the issue is that this status page is maintained by hand, by humans, and updating it likely requires lots of communication and sign-off approvals, and trying to get numbers to decide whether an outage is big or only impacting a tiny fraction of users. Otherwise it'd probably always be red.

LP: [laugh]
TG: And what's the name for it?
LP: Uh, recursion. It's... kind of... Sergey is giving me a dirty look.
TG: Why?
LP: It's a loose definition. [laugh]
TG: Lighten up Sergey. [laugh]
LP: It's a loose interpretation of... [laugh]... recursion.
TG: Sergey, what's the more literal interpretation?
