Missing/incomplete translations from Crowdin

I have a TYPO3 CMS 12 installation with EXT:blog v12. When I try to download the danish translation. The downloaded files are missing a lot of translations keys and even files compared to the source language files. I checked Crowdin and found out, that the translation there is complete.

So why does TYPO3 not download the translations correctly?

It seems the file located at https://localize.typo3.org/xliff/b/l/blog-l10n/blog-l10n-da.zip contains the wrong files.

I can confirm the same is true for the german translation files. Example variables that are missing (among others):

author.social.website
backend.table.hidden.no

Even whole language files are missing:

locallang_mod_blog.xlf
locallang_mod_blog_comments.xlf
locallang_mod_blog_posts.xlf
locallang_mod_blog_setup.xlf

The missing files and variables are present in the extension (english standard), though. I compared the files on Crowdin and it seems that TYPO3 fetches the files from v8.7 and not master. The files from v8.7. are identical with what I get when I update the files.

Just a test:
Updating the ext:news translation files worked but here the folder structure on Crowdin begins with main and there are no other specific versioned translation files for older versions of ext:news.
The blog repository on Crowdin has a master "folder" and the two version numbers v8.7 and v9.1.

How are different versions of language files "connected" to a specific version of an extension?
Maybe that connection never got adapted for the newer blog versions or you have to use main instead of master in CrowdIn?

It seems the this is the same problem as with the Danish translation files, where you also only have master, v9.1 and v8.7.
