When did AWS lie? On their status page? That's the last place to receive updates on service status. It sucks but it's also common knowledge. I'll give you a little insider knowledge: The SHD is updated manually. If it's any consolation, GCP does the exact same thing.

I saw notifications in the AWS Personal Health Dashboard pretty very early into the issue. Did you see something different?

Also, I've seen issues logging into the default console a lot, so I keep one of the backup endpoints bookmarked. Might come in handy for you too!
