Did the devs just soft drop the update date?

Noticed the other day on the discord that one of the devs was chatting. In it he pinged all of the "rat king" role, which is only achieved by reaching level 70 in the server. Only 21 people have rat king currently. Another member Noticed this and asked if the update is 21 days away. Mastef just said "ok". Is this a hint?!?!?!

Mastef pinging all the rat kings

Only 21 rat kings, its a hard to reach level

Mastef being called out and him just saying \"okay\"

If this is all true, the update would drop on March 5th, which aligns with the Late Quater 1 release.
