The WTS does leave themselves a window of opportunity to renege on 2023: Governing Body has decided that, Jehovah willing, we will resume in-person regional conventions in 2023". I wonder how their god will tell them he is not willing?

This came out in the May 22, 1984, Awake, p.19-20 "“I Would Never Do It Again!”
In another popular video, Thriller, the performer is seen to transform first into a “cat person,” then a dancing “monster.” Evidently not wanting viewers to conclude that it promoted spiritism, the film begins with the disclaimer: “Due to my strong personal convictions, I wish to stress that this film in no way endorses a belief in the occult.—Michael Jackson.” Nevertheless, it was so realistic that some who saw it admitted that they were horrified at first. What was this short film intended to convey? And how does the performer, Michael Jackson, feel about it in looking back?
“I would never do it again!” says Jackson. “I just intended to do a good, fun short film, not to purposely bring to the screen something to scare people or to do anything bad. I want to do what’s right. I would never do anything like that again.” Why not? “Because a lot of people were offended by it,” explains Jackson. “That makes me feel bad. I don’t want them to feel that way. I realize now that it wasn’t a good idea. I’ll never do a video like that again!” He continues: “In fact, I have blocked further distribution of the film over which I have control, including its release in some other countries. There’s all kinds of promotional stuff being proposed on Thriller. But I tell them, ‘No, no, no. I don’t want to do anything on Thriller. No more Thriller.’”"

The WTS gives them an out regarding their understanding prophecy right here: Current statements in 2020:
April 2020 WT Study magazine, p. 2
As those Bible students soon found out, however, it can be one thing to learn what the Bible teaches about a certain doctrinal subject but quite another to discern correctly the meaning of a Bible prophecy. Why is that so? For one thing, Bible prophecies are often best understood when they are undergoing fulfillment or after they have been fulfilled.
** w11 12/1 p. 12 Who Can Interpret Prophecy? ***
“Interpretations belong to God” also in that he determines and directs when a prophecy is to be understood by his faithful servants on earth. The meaning of a prophecy can be discerned before, during, or after its fulfillment. Since God tied up the prophecies, he will unravel them at the right time—his time.
Or this: *** w11 12/1 p. 12 Who Can Interpret Prophecy? ***
The inspired prophets of old, such as Daniel, did not personally analyze the current trends of their time and then attempt to unravel a complicated future by uttering a prophecy. If they had tried to force the future to unfold in this way, such prophesying would have originated in their own imagination. It would then have been a human prediction, a forecast built upon an imperfect foundation.
Or this: w04 2/1 p. 21 par. 13 "The Scene of This World Is Changing" ***
Since Bible prophecies are often fully understood only after they are fulfilled or are in the process of fulfillment,
we will have to wait and see.***
w00 3/15 p. 13 par. 12 ‘O God, Send Out Your Light’ ***Just as the apostles understood many prophecies concerning the Messiah only after Jesus’ death and resurrection, Christians today understand Bible prophecy in its finest detail only after it has been fulfilled.

Be wary when the WTS uses this phrase or the equivalent, "The Scriptures, though, do not tell us what Cornelius and others did after their conversion. No doubt" as the WTS will add to scriptures and justify it by adding "no doubt" somehow means they are not adding to a scripture. Interestingly, this quote was hard to find using the Watchtower Online Library (WOL). Are they trying to hide it, perhaps? (see WT 9/1/1986).
"The Scriptures, though, do not tell us what Cornelius and others did after their conversion. No doubt" Good catch!
A few more examples: "
The Bible does not say how long it took Noah to build the ark, but it seems that he spent several decades building it.
The Bible does not say, but even by the end of the first century, the number of believers must have been far fewer than 144,000.
The Bible does not say, but the way events unfolded suggests that consideration for young Samuel was an important factor.
The Bible does not say, but we have good reason to believe
Life begins at conception. Jehovah can resurrect individuals of whatever stage of life because “all things are possible with God.” (Mark 10:27) But the Bible does not directly say whether he will resurrect unborn children who died in the womb.

My Prediction Regarding New Space Telescope That Will See Back to 100 Million Years From the Big Bang
by Sea Breeze ina new space telescope launched a few days age that will supposedly be able to see to within 100 million years of the big bang.
wow... only 100 million years from the big bang.
that is pretty early given the 12 billion year age of the universe assigned by scholars who adhere to naturalism.
