No. The libraries are not "out of date" but intentionally static. These static foundations are what companies pay lots of extra money for with windows ltsc, red hat, oracle, SuSE etc.

Exactly. And for those that are packaged they say "these are the versions we support. If you want to us to do the support work, use these". Again for stuff like windows ltsc that means I install version X now and want this to be supported for the next 5 years. If I instead install a consumer version of windows it means X will be out if support by then and I am expected to have upgraded to X+1, X+2, X+3 during these 5 years.
Case in point, Firefox has multiple current versions: 102 ESR and 111. Both get regular updates and neither is "out of date".
