From my experience, yeah, same here. I’d bet money it’s SERP clutter more than anything on the site itself. Seen this a bunch lately where GSC makes it look like “same rankings, fewer clicks” and then you check the actual results and the page is just stuffed with junk above you. Google loves pretending nothing changed while the whole layout gets wrecked. If it’s across a lot of queries, I wouldn’t panic yet. If it’s just a couple pages, then maybe the snippet got stale or the intent shifted a bit. But the “quiet screw job” thing? Yeah, pretty much.
