Hard not to get all conspiracy theorist about canary removals. If I were to don my tinfoil hat, it seems possible to remove the canary with a boring incident for plausible deniability of a prior incident whose confidentiality is more strictly enforced. The stricter gag order gets what it wants - non-disclosure of that particular gag order, the canary gets what it wants - removal after an incident.
