Because there are contracts related to uptime :)

  Does any service even say they're "down" anymore? All I see is "elevated error rates".

    4 to 6 hours after the flames are visible from orbit and management has finally given up on the 37th quick fix you do get that red X But really not until after it's been on CNN a while.

  Those contracts will be monitoring their service availability on their own. If Google can't be honest you can bet your bottom dollar the companies paying for that SLA are going to hold them accountable if they report the outage properly or not.

    The real point of SLAs is to give you a reason to break contracts. If a vendor doesn't meet their contractual promises, that gives you a lot of room to get out contracts
