Just confirming that we utilize Content Delivery Networks for publishing
these assets, which can take time to propagate refreshed data when the
URL doesn't change. While we send them instructions to invalidate their
caches to retrieve the latest version each time we release a new version
of the timezone database, it isn't instantaneous.

While the -latest versions will necessarily have some minor lag in
updating for this reason, the new releases with the version number
embedded will always be up-to-date as their filename is novel.
