Comment (by JeffPaul):

 I suspect that specific example ''could'' be an issue with the plugin's
 "Tested up to" value being 6.1.7 and the related warning at the top of the
 plugin page:
 > This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of
 WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have
 compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

 Its possible that the search algorithm deprioritizes or perhaps completely
 ignores plugins that haven't been marked as tested to a recent core
 version?
