[2.21] some data vaults won't open (explained)

I've been playing for a while and discovered about 20 DVs, out of which 2 won't open.
One I "repaired" all pressure leaks but there was nothing inside, no "signal noise" either.
Another couldn't have some of the pressure leaks repaired until they were shot with a damaging laser first, then repairing turned them green - but they were empty anyway.
I was quite sure some future patch will fix them so I let them be, but now that I don't see this in the changelog again, I wonder if I should report it or find out how to address this issue? I'd really like to complete the whole timeline... What would help? One is at Grand Exchange 1, the other at Heretic's End, respectively.

I'm not saying your wrong..but most of these posts turn out to be already visited data vaults..which after a time reset but contain nothing..the way most people remember if they have visited is by leaving a nav beacon next to one they have been too...there are various google posts about the vault location to the timeline entry...so i'd check against those if I were you.
But from my experiance to these posts it turns out not to be a vault issue...
you could be the first tho

Do you have a more specific list of DV <-> timeline entry? I couldn't find anything complete.
As for my approach, like many others, I've been patiently marking my opened DVs with a nav beacon, renaming it to "dv opened" or "dv bugged" if I couldn't open. I looked around in forums and noticed others have been doing the same, so "I am not the first one".

That follow-on question and answer get this moved from Tech Sp to the Spoiler forum.
