Oh please, show me a company that has ever over reported their downtime. That's silly.
That's fair. We don't know.
I am making an assumption that if Microsoft saw a lot of false positive outages they would fix that, but might drag their feet if there was an outage that didn't get properly recorded (assuming it's automatic to begin with, it might be that a human needs remember to update it).
