Yeah, true. 

When a package that has been 'pushed' to updates-testing is unpushed,
it simply means the next compose that package will be removed. It
doesn't do it right when the 'unpush' event happens, if it did it would
require a full recompose/push of the updates-testing repo, which isn't
practical. 

So yeah, correct with updates-testing.
