still seems to contain lua-5.4.5

That's probably a good thing, as it's an archive primarily intended for historical purposes.

(Preserving all versions *somewhere* for future software archaeology and other history analyses is valuable, so even if 5.4.5 was retracted and removed from the main download page, keeping it in there (possibly with a warning as to why it was retracted) is good. I personally certainly appreciate it.)
