It does not mean that at all. I have no inside knowledge of any efforts to thwart Amazon's locking down of access to Kindle book formats. If something new does get released publicly I am sure that we will all hear about it very quickly.
As an aside, it surprises me how many copies of the KFX Input plugin are still being downloaded. It has very limited utility since Amazon broke the original KFX DRM crack in late 2018. Amazon's countering of that by having multiple DRM versions ready for immediate deployment makes it very difficult to work around. I do not expect DRM removal for KFX to ever become possible again as long are there are easier alternatives, such as using an older Kindle to obtain copies of books.

If you want to see what was changed in those plugin look at the "Version History" section in the first post of each plugin thread. I update them occasionally to keep up with Kindle Previewer and Kindle Create software releases.
