Splunk Enterprise Security

Why is the "summary.earliest_time" field from the REST API "/services/admin/summarization" showing epoch time 0?

After looking at the "Data Model Audit" dashboard in Splunk ES, in the "Acceleration Details" panel, we saw that some of the datamodels had their "earliest" time sat to "01/01/1970 01:00:00". We found out that this is from the command "| rest /services/admin/summarization by_tstats=t splunk_server=local count=0", which sets the field "summary.earliest_time" for some of our datamodels to "0".

If we run a tstats search on the datamodels for "all time", there are no events with this timestamp, not even close. As far as I can tell, the parsing works just fine, and no events in the datamodels are older than 3 months.

Why is the REST API still saying that the earliest time is epoch 0?
