It's surprising and disappointing that Apple didn't catch a bug like this in QA. This affects popular apps, and many people will have at least one of these apps with outdated Electron frameworks.
Put it this way: if I were in charge of a major OS, and I having one of the major app frameworks used on my OS tested on for my annual upgrade, I'd feel pretty embarrassed, even if there's a figleaf excuse why it's not my fault.
This doesn't exactly instill confidence in Apple's competence.
What does Apple even get out of it? I don't think anyone is clamouring for new MacOS releases, so I can't imagine it drives hardware sales. MacOS is no longer a paid product either.
it's been a while since you used macos? apple has completely stopped giving a shit, extremely basic functionality like spotlight and settings search have been completely broken for years now...
The search in Settings not working is an issue Apple carried over from iOS (where it was broken for years) into macOS. One of my pet peeves is all the Catalyst apps (like Reminders) that don’t work well with keyboard navigation.

Apple abandoned any commitment to QA as soon as they committed to mid-September becoming a magical date, practically written in stone.

I use spotlight constantly for everything, but I admit I don't use the search feature in settings all that often.
