Seller advertising items as NOS when they are actually used - eBay not concerned | Buying

I've reported items from this seller twice. The first time was after I nearly hit the buy button before deciding to read the listing again, and noticing the Item Specifics/Condition showed the item to actually be used and not new old stock. My report gained a response from eBay saying "we'll take it from here", but the listing is currently still active. The second report was just now, when a separate item appeared in my watchlist under "Similar Sponsored Items". I reported the item using the Help icon in the bottom corner of the screen. I got a response saying the listing was reviewed by AI and not found to violate eBay's policies. So a seller is sponsoring misleading items to appear in my feed, and eBay is allowing it. How is this OK?
