Why now?

Well, it came up again on Twitter and John Mueller from Google outright said they are wrong. So Moz updated it. John wrote, "you might want to tell them [Moz] that it's wrong." Britney Muller from Moz responded she will act on it.

So now Moz updated it to add more about their debate.

Funny that they think Google is lying still.
