There is one paid developer for the entire F@h project, he has been tasked in the past with doing some urgent fixes to the pages. But mostly his current work is on the server code, keeping the servers updated and working, configuring new servers as they become available, and some work on the client code.

Now they have taken on some volunteers to work on the website, possibly work towards a new client code base that is more fully open source, and so on. Some of that has been down through the F@h Discord channel, I have not been following progress there.

As for just shaving off some code, the certificate pages are generated on the fly by a database query. Someone would have to dig into that code, figure out why the link is created with the extra elements, test the changes, and then publish. There is an open ticket on this, eventually it should get done, but it does not fall into the category of "urgent".
