Okay, it seems that the inconsistency is purposeful, as per [1].

Regardless, it's a bit surprising to be warned of an approaching EOL when 11.3
has not yet been released. According to [2], FreeBSD 11.2 will be supported
until the release of 11.3 + 3 months. According to [3] I shouldn't be warned
outside of 3 months of EOL, so there seems to be a bug in the data source that
freebsd-update is using for this warning.
