3rd party website up check

I had someone try to tell me that 3rd party sites to see if a site is down, something like isitdownrightnow.com, are reliable. While I don't agree, and many of my team don't agree, I wasn't really sure how to hell the person that they were incorrect in their statement. But for all I know, maybe I'm wrong? To me those sites aren't reliable bc we dont know how they were designed to check if it's down.

How would you bring that up to an end user and explain why they shouldn't rely on "isitdownrightnow.com"
