The site is disingenuous. There have been far more than two service incidents. Around 2015 there were many periods where transactions simply weren't clearing at all due to overload, and there was no way to set a correct tx fee because the fee needed to get to the front of the queue was constantly changing and wallets couldn't inform users of what the current fee was anyway. From the user's perspective these were outages.
