At some point I think some devs might be refactoring a switch-case into an if-else and calling it an "update" to troll downstreams.
apparently fools consider a finished app "dead" or "abandoned" if there isn't a new release every week. so yeah, dev's will just change a comment to not have their apps shunned
For a correct metric one must multiply the time since last update by the number of open issues
For me if an app doesn't get updated within 13 months, I'll look for an alternative, why 13 ? It's my cursed unlucky number...
