The page shows all green, which coincidentally is also how it looks when Azure is down. That page is for SLA/billing purposes, it won't show live incidents as they occur.

How sure are we that their status page is accurate? AWS's status page often lags actual issues.

AWS's status page would be green after a microsingularity swallowed the solar system. Azure's status page is very similar.
