No one's claiming that it's malicious or illegal. It's just that a recommendation engine that recommends an old, unmaintained, copy-cat extension which wasn't exactly great back when it was new and maintained is not very trustworthy -- it's either very bad, or vulnerable to rigging.
It's like a movie recommendation engine that preeminently features Howard the Duck or something. It's not malicious or illegal but its recommendations are probably useless.
