Who says public status page equals internal monitoring.

They likely know faster than you. Whether they post it publicly is a different issue (hint: SLA penalties, news impacting stock etc)

I never mentioned anything about status pages.

Are you sure you’re replying to the right comment?

For context, the parent comment you replied to started with status page.

Then are you talking about internal leaks or just guessing? Otherwise besides what's public how do you know they don't know?

It was two comments prior to mine that mentioned status pages.

Someone then replied about how it takes a bunch of HTTP response errors for problems to be alerted and thus I commented that application observability would consist of more than just waiting for users to hit errors.
