The status page should be used for conveying more than just "whether the servers are up and reachable" and it's obvious that npm thinks so too. At the top of their page they list an issue about certain packages that "are currently unable to be viewed or installed."

In the end, you'll break their trust and you'll have to work impossibly hard to get it back.
