What were they supposed to d do? Disconnect with upstream?

Use non-slopified alternatives. There are lists such as Open Slopware that document where to get alternatives.

Or just fork the last non-slopified version and work from there. For already-mature software, should not make that much difference in the short term for a distro that seeks out stable long-term behaviour (things would be vastly different if this was Arch).
