Hi @juliengarrigue,
Thanks for the great question! You’re right that this matters for SEO: without a 503, search engines may crawl and index the maintenance page itself instead of understanding the site is temporarily down.
We’ve noted this and as a feature request and will keep you in loop about updates!
