Technically this is wrong behavior, but using 5 alarms is more rare - I'd expect one or two to be the more likely cases. Let's track to get this fixed, however.

I have a strong suspicion that google does not send all 5 alarms... needinfo'ing myself to check it out.

Turns out I found out why this wasn't working for me. Gcal supports two styles of alarms:

- Email
- Popup

We integrate with popup, given those are the type of notifications we fire. Upon further testing, those appear to work in single, 2 alarm, and 5 alarm cases. That explains the issues I hit here.

Resolving as invalid as we technically import the popup alarms, not the email alarms (which makes sense).
