Inconsistent number of steps

Howdy!

Not sure if this is the right forum to post this in, but let's give it a shot anyway :)

The other day I was looking at my steps report (after clicking through from the dashboard) in "7 day breakdown mode" and saw that it had only registered 5,869 steps for a certain day. I found this odd and was initially a bit shocked (the tiniest bit, really.. more of an "Oh RLY?!") by this as I really had put my best foot forward (pun intended) to at least meet, and where possible, exceed my daily goals. Since I was entirely certain I had lived up to that expectation I digged a bit further and looked at the daily breakdown (sidemenu -> steps -> left arrowed to the date at hand) and that number seemed to be correct (10k+ steps, goal met).

For a moment I wasn't entirely sure if this had something to do with the way GC aggregates date periods and while I was writing this post the oddest thing happened. My "7 day breakdown" now showed the correct numbers! Almost as if looking at the daily stats caused the weekly stats to update!

So to clarify, the numbers shown on the 7 day breakdown located at this URL were incorrect:
http://connect.garmin.com/modern/report/29/wellness/last_seven_days

The numbers shown on this URL:
connect.garmin.com/.../steps

When I then went back to the first page everything seemed to have "synced up" (At least I found a work-around while writing this post, so I have that going for me... :)

Long story short - odd behaviour this, anyone who has experienced this and/or knows if this is a frequent problem?

For you devs out there, if any read this (?), would it be worth trying to reproduce the behaviour?

Also, to all of you at Garmin and all of you on the forum hope you will have an amazing holidays :)
