Boeing Press Release: "The property of this aircraft that it does an uncommanded roll on passing 10,000' was not necessary to be documented. It enhances the flying experience and because it is completely automatic, pilots and passengers don't need to know about it. Furthermore, there is no evidence that it happens."

"Right. We just do the same thing, but at ten o'clock every night in line astern. The plan is to see how many idiots think that we are the Starlink satellites".
