I believe they had carried out maintenance work after each warning. That's what the airline said in one of the news reports. The no one water flights may well have been a reasonable Lim with information at the time.
There's no information about the nature of the cabin pressurisation issues, they may have been linked or not. Three is the minimum to put a trend together, but cabin pressurisation is a big system so not always easy to make that trend.
