Upstream is adopting many of these changes. A 1.0 release candidate fully integrating the toponaming changes from RealThunder's branch is supposed to be released within a week or two. There are many other convenience features in the RT branch (like better section views, live updates to chamfer/fillets, non-contiguous bodies, etc) but backwards compatibility with existing models is much more important in upstream than it is in experimental forks like RealThunder's. Basically, it just takes time.

yeahhh I get that in the abstract it was just jarring to see a fork I was getting recommended 5 years ago still be unmerged lol. I should know better from how much I work with open source but apparently I don't lol

I never went too deep on freecad, I just use it the like 5x a year I need to print a part
