Query regarding SWOT SWORD of Science (SoS) dataset #255

I tried to visualise the discharge timeseries data from SWORD of Science (SoS) dataset. As shown in the website, I tried to download the data for the period 2022-Dec-16 to Present. Following is the code that I used for the same

river_results = earthaccess.search_data(short_name = 'SWOT_L2_HR_RIVERSP_2.0',
#temporal = ('2022-12-16 00:00:00', '2024-12-31 23:59:59'))

I was able to download data for various regions (NA, SA, OC, AF, EU). For EU I got the following files
eu_sword_v15_SOS_unconstrained_0001_20240228T205029_priors.nc
eu_sword_v15_SOS_unconstrained_0001_20240228T205029_results.nc
eu_sword_v15_SOS_unconstrained_0001_20240228T205029_results.nc
eu_sword_v16_SOS_unconstrained_0001_20240608T010920_results.nc
eu_sword_v16_SOS_unconstrained_0001_20240726T123345_priors.nc
eu_sword_v16_SOS_unconstrained_0001_20240726T123345_results.nc

I ploted the entire discharge from these datasets for the reach ID 23267000071 in EU dataset. However I was not able to get the complete timeseries for the chosen period i.e., Dec 2022 to Dec 2024. What I could get was dataset starting from 2023/04/18 to 2023/025, 2023/04/01 to 2023/06/26 and 2023/11/24 to 2024/04/08.

Why is it so? Am I missing something, in my code or downloaded data, or is it because SoS don't have data during this period
