well of course they were. it's hard to update or scale AI built crap because the vast majority of the time the agent will deny even building it and then re-write whatever it previously wrote from scratch.
To be fair: This study looked at the repos after flathub had announced to not accept these apps any more. I would say it is surprising that development didn't stop everywhere immediately after that.
