They are, but what if there's a last minute hitch (as has happened
previously) where they need to resync?

The product has been released on time on every release date set so
far. It's still the 23rd for quite some time yet. 8.10 was released at
about 2pm UK time. Patience is a virtue.

What, that you don't get the release before it's been released?

I'd rather wait until the Release Manager (whose job it is to release
the product) has done his job, and made sure everything is ready.
