What makes you think that that is not a lock-down? What criteria has not been met?
Yes, you're right, Western Australia has had a number of short lockdowns.
What I should have said is that most of them - the ones in April, May and June 2021 - occurred subsequent to the March-April respiratory syncytial virus outbreak and therefore could not have been causal or contributory. I've tweaked that in the original post now.
