So we've just had invalid IPs...for how long? And this hasn't been
fixed after how long reported?

Awesome work surfacing the bug. But the fact that this was not fixed
thus far and, moreover, that nobody on Analytics Engineering let
consumers know (unless there's a thread I've missed somewhere) is
deeply concerning. We have schemas and analysis that rely on this
field. As a customer I would like to know what the scheduling on
fixing this bug.
