Maybe when uutils ship their gnu compatible version(deviations from GNU are considered bugs), macos will update.

MIT, Rust, active development... Maybe in few years.

macOS Ventura ships zsh 5.9 which is latest version and was released 2022-05-14. Not sure about grep, but at least some of their unix components are up to date.
