To me, it seems like they may have some issue with the mapping between what the scans are, and what the frontend shows the user, i.e. showing the wrong step/scan as "Loaded".
I suspect it's user's error (wrong config on the PDT) or they have changed the code recently to simplify the message.

I remember there were multiple scans/updates in different stages when it was still in beta. If i remember correctly, it was dropped off at counter, prepare to load, loaded onto the plane, unloaded off the plane, delivered to carousel x.

My bag was shown as accepted , then loaded onto the plane midair and then unloaded at YYZ. That is it.
