    Renderer 3.17.0). Better Platform and Better Meds version publicly only through marketing
    release pages; their documentation is behind Microsoft Entra SAML.

status_page_note: >-
  No public status page. better.statuspage.io and betterplatform.statuspage.io both resolve but
  redirect to a Better Okta SAML sign-in (better.okta.com/app/statuspage_saml/...), i.e. the
  status page exists but is employee/customer-only, not public. No StatusPage pointer is
  emitted for a page the public cannot read.
