Have seen it happen recently. Search for example for Rust. The top choice is a deprecated extension.

Unfortunately, we do not have time to address this issue, we are now prioritizing on other work, and we plan to revisit search relevance in the future. Thank you for your understanding.

I would suggest two possible alternatives to hide deprecated extensions from search:
