Hazard Simplification and /alerts/types endpoint

[6TELOIV]

According to https://www.weather.gov/hazardsimplification/repairprogress, there have been changes to the types of alerts that the NWS issues. However, a lot of these changes aren't reflected in the API (as defined by https://api.weather.gov/alerts/types). For example:

• Wind Chill Advisory is still present instead of Cold Weather Advisory (which is not present)
• Wind Chill Watch and Wind Chill Warning are still present
• Excessive Heat Watch and Excessive Heat Warning are still present instead of Extreme Heat Watch and Extreme Heat Warning (which are not present)
• Urban And Small Stream Flood Advisory, Small Stream Flood Advisory, Arroyo and Small Stream Flood Advisory, and Hydrologic Advisory are still present
• Small Craft Advisory For Hazardous Seas, Small Craft Advisory For Rough Bar, and Small Craft Advisory For Winds are still present
• Lake Effect Snow Warning, Lake Effect Snow Watch, Freezing Rain Advisory, and Blizard Watch are still present

Am I misunderstanding the changes? Do they only effect headline and description, and not the event?

This is mentioned on the Updates tab at https://www.weather.gov/documentation/services-web-api

These are slated to be fixed in the next release targeted for the week of 5/19.
