Its true that things would be different, but what value does the data
have? How many releases are using it? If few people are using it (the
only use case I can think of is tracking slipped releases) then its
overhead and complexity all users are paying for.
Perhaps it would be nicer to only ever show one date:
Expected at: <xxxx>
{release happens}
Released at: <xxxx>
