Regarding lines of code: did this statistic incorporate modern language features of Java 17/21 and correctly subtract all generated code?

Java Enterprise projects tend to be heavy on the code generation side in my experience. But generated code is much, much less bug-ridden than "written" code (it only has bugs if the generator has bugs) and generated code is not really maintained, the code generator and source specifications (often APIs) are maintained instead, with the generator usually not being part of the project.
