I e-mailed seeking clarification and the dealer rep just replied:

They said they could probably have it ready for me today, but the timeline is tight being the last day of the month. I'll probably take it home tomorrow morning.

My build date for my Pro still hasn't been bumped -- still 10/24 (seeing that so many are getting bumped). I ordered on August 11th, extended on April 13th, and placed my reservation on 5/19/21.
