I followed the rabbit hole.
Went to the OPM website archives:
https://www.opm.gov/news/whats-new/2020/
And then pulled the March 17, 2020 status:

It isn't anything at all. It was the government's reaction to a pandemic they didn't understand, so they took extreme measures to reduce DoD employee exposure by allowing them to stay at home if their job could still be done from there. It hasn't changed since that decision was made.
