I think it's a complicated question to answer because there are so many possible combinations. 1. Simpler software doesn't usually have issues with broken installers. 2. A lot of software doesn't get frequent-enough updates that old versions would matter. 3. High-profile projects usually have personal connections with the major distributions' packaging team (or even a "personal union", where it's actually the same people). And there are other cases. I think Bottles got stuck in a spot where their software is _very_ complicated to install correctly, updates often (young project + interactions with 3rd party software such as games), and they're a small team that doesn't have a way to work efficiently with the distributions.
