Oh my goodness..... yes...I do. It's here:

In addition to short interest data, FINRA also publishes short sale volume data. The daily short sale volume data provides aggregated volume by security for all off-exchange short sale trades. This data excludes any trading activity that is not publicly disseminated and is not consolidated with exchange data.

Some market participants mistakenly conclude that the bimonthly short interest data is understated because the Short Sale Volume Daily File reflects volume that is much larger than the positions reported as short interest. However, short interest position data does not—and is not intended to—equate to the daily short sale volume data posted on FINRA’s website.

The short interest data is just a snapshot that reflects short positions held by brokerage firms at a specific moment in time on two discrete days each month. The Short Sale Volume Daily File reflects the aggregate volume of trades within certain parameters executed as short sales on individual trade dates. Therefore, while the two data sets are related in that short sale volume activity may ultimately result in a reportable short interest position, they are not the same.

Sheesh is an understatement and what is so sickening to me is while I show evidence of "what is"...instead of getting "gee thanks...I didn't know that"...I get chastised by individuals that actually know better. So why game it?...eh??

Short interest is what remains outstanding. The broker/dealers are required to post biweekly reports. And this is REG SHO:
