I think these are very valid points and definitely worth a conversation to see if others also find these kind of things ‘non-events’ too. I know there’s been some discussion about not including these in the reply count for similar reasons.
I did give this a test run earlier and my test user didn’t have them arrive in their /unread, but when I look at the status_type of the timers in data explorer they’re getting a 1 (close) rather then an 8 (silent close) so there’s a chance I’m borking my test somehow.
