Slack has to do a little more due dilligence than "wifi's down, must be AWS" for their status page.
Even assuming they can't instantly see the problems in a dashboard and need to take time to understand user feedback to see which aspects specifically are affected to update the page in more detail, nothing is stopping them from very quickly putting a "Connectivity issues reported by some users, investigating the extent and cause currently" banner at the top of the page which should be ready to go at a moment's notice anyway.
