One problem may have been that the last leap second was declared when dUT1 was changing rapidly but 6 months later had reached only about -0.4 in 2017 Jan, when the leap second flipped it to about +0.5, dUT1 kept going down to -0.1 around 2019 Mar, and it's wobbled between that and -0.25 since then; see:

This looks like a very interesting table to study. Could you point me to a document that describes the column values, or maybe give a brief description of the column abbreviations? I might create a project out of this on Gitlab with SQLite and scripts to visualize the data.
