so if some other maintainers experience the same it would be something nice to have.
Let the ood flag be there, it doesn't hurt anyone if that's not true. You already stated it's the latest stable release in the comments, and people will eventually check and risk installing it either way. That will avoid any trolls be fed. Then you can start thinking about a feature request for improving the AUR's functionality in a way that makes some more sense. People who would flag a package out of date would write a comment like "because it's autof date"
I kind of like the idea of adding a comment field. I wondered why some package has been flagged out-of-date a couple of times and I think having an additional comment might make things easier. -1 to making it mandatory, though. Martti already gave a reason. Anyway, could you please file a feature request?
