My guess is that the web version either won’t be live (will use last refresh of GM data to their cloud) or we won’t see the web version for many years to come. If they use the former then it will be no better than the current player version ( probably worse since most web clients still suck compared to a dedicated computer-based non-web client.
LWD never said or implied it would be live to the GM's edits. Just to the GM's most recent sync.
