I also get this weird sense that besides seemingly just having changed 4 icons, as far as I can tell, it really feels like they’re just dusting off three dimensional icons that existed back in around about the early aughts ?
I’m not convinced either.

I do agree with the article that before the iOS 7 flat design rush the barrier to entry for indie app developers was super high because it's damn hard to make the iOS <7 style look good. Flat is easy though. But with AI tools, the old style is suddenly available to lots of people again.
