Clearing review is not release. Something can be entirely correct and still not be out in the world.
The reasoning
Clearing a review means something has been judged fit to go out. It doesn't mean it has gone out. That gap is where good work quietly sits, checked twice and used by no one.
In practice
A report is approved, double-checked, and privately treated as done by everyone involved — while it sits in a drafts folder for a month, because sending it was never explicitly anyone's job.
