Perhaps this is terminology confusion, but the official docs explicitly state that status lines "[Run] locally and [do] not consume API tokens." [0] _If_ that documentation is talking about the same thing that TFA is talking about, then I'd say that this is very much not common knowledge.

I also wonder if the fix that they "just rolled out" is actually activating the 'short' mode that TFA mentions...
