Because you are wrong, look at other groups and tracker. It always goes by application date and not AOR.
Just chill...it doesn't matter what you think, there are more important people in this world....processing clock starts only when AOR /application number is generated, after a completeness check. - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-citizenship/become-canadian-citizen/after-apply-next-steps.html. If your application is incomplete, no aor, app number is generated and application is returned. GCMS system doesn't accept incomplete applications.

It’s not my first application and I know what I’m talking about. No need to be that stubborn and do your due diligence.
it doesn’t matter what I think, I agree, while it’s not my opinion this is a fact.

Yes, this is a GU. BTW did you get your BG and LPP done? If so, you might see your ceremony in progress soon.
Mine are all green as of yesterday, how long do it usually take for the ceremony to be in progress? I know it varies a lot, just curious. Mississauga office here.

Congratulations! Based on what I've observed last month, the period people got their invitation letter ranges from few days to couple of weeks after LPP. Hope you get yours very soon.
