They added "We are experiencing an issue with Google Cloud infrastructure components" at the top, but everything is still green.

Are they unaware of which components have issues?

They know internally from the real status dashboards & real monitoring.

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.
