I believe so - I base that conclusion on the facts that a) they have moved to talk more about "protecting" status and b) I have not seen recent reports of anyone benefitting in this way, in fact the opposite - people who have qualified under their own steam are asking where their "extra year" is.
It was, as I recall, only this who stepped up a tier who benefitted from the way the system "blindly" added a year to the expiry dates.
I don't expect anyone who reaches the qualification levels to benefit in any way in terms of expiry dates anymore, unlike some who did in the original 2020 extensions.
