International wire cutoff from DC looking earlier than the docs?

SigmaPointPi question · Wires · District of Columbia, United States

Docs say 4:00 PM ET for USD wires. Treasury here sent one at 3:41 and it sat until the next day. Vendor in London was not thrilled. Is the real cutoff earlier on Fed days?
