This is mathematicians using the solution, explicitly acknowledged to solve the original formulation of the problem, to pose interesting new questions. That is what mathematics is.
Only someone who has never interacted with mathematics outside a rote-problem-solving capacity would describe it as you have.
That has nothing with moving a goalpost, it’s about understanding the actual result and digging into the details. Obviously when you do that things become more nuanced than at first glance

What I've said is rather clearly spelled out in the article. Consider reading the it next time?
