So what?

Do you expect RWGPS to survey every road every year?

OSM's data is out-of-date in some places. Google's data isn't much better in these locations.

What mapping service indicates the correct surface? If it's local (county level), it wouldn't be practical for RWGPS to negotiate with every county in the US to get the latest data. And there's no guarantee that the data is provided by every county in a common or usable format.

Turn off the "surfaces" setting. Then, it will be as accurate/inaccurate as it was before. Simple.
