A few of us tested this last year. On the public list, those with STPA were appearing behind anyone and everyone with 50K status, and ahead of anyone with 35K/25K status, regardless of the STPA holder's own status.

What we never verified was whether the public list was correct in that respect - it does not always match the actual list that gets run when upgrades are processed.
