Gmail / GSuite / Youtube are not directly listed, though Firestore is and it's still green.
Are they unaware of which components have issues?
I think the issue is that this status page is maintained by hand, by humans, and updating it likely requires lots of communication and sign-off approvals, and trying to get numbers to decide whether an outage is big or only impacting a tiny fraction of users. Otherwise it'd probably always be red.
