Not a lawyer nor picking sides but I can see an argument where expectation that scams are removed very quickly would greatly reduce the risk profile.
It’s like shopping at a grocery store thinking that recalled foods are de-shelved within hours of a notice but they actually kept selling them for weeks. Much different risk profile.
