(Not an astronomer)

I noticed in the contrib/Ephemeris folder that the JPLEPH file is
DE405 which was created back in 1997.
(Ref: https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/?planet_eph_export )

Is there a reason that such old data is being used?

For the best EME and other calculations, shouldn't DE440 which was
created June 2020 be used?

-ALSO-

lib/slasubs.f is missing the data for the Leap Second for Jan 1 2017 @ line 161
(Ref: https://www.ietf.org/timezones/data/leap-seconds.list  )

Respectfully,
