Outdated because the Windows environment is changing and more dependent on UWP in areas and AHK was built for win32 applications and the AHK devs don't really work on it much anymore. There is an AHK v2, but it's actually a bit different and not even as well maintained as V1. In order to use it with UWP you need Selenium so then it's not a stand-alone application. Not that big of an issue to me, but it is for many.

It's a shame it has that rep, as you say there are probably much better placed tools to do so. Outdated, maybe? But if it ain't broke don't fix it!
