There would be LOTS of reports if it was shot down.

That’s kinda the game at this point: they lob stuff harmlessly, and people largely ignore it.
We won’t shoot it down unless someone is actually at risk, so that we can justify interfering with their “test” which really isn’t one at that point.
And the concern is that if that happens, it’s basically the onset of war, at which point NK unloads 30,000 x N artillery shells on Seoul, killing a few million people, minutes after which NK basically ceases to exist.

Hence the reluctance to shoot anything down.
