Old extension version is installed instead of the latest

We have a devcontainer.json that uses dbcode.dbcode extension and it seems it installs an old (first?) version and not the latest. If the version is pinned, eg dbcode.dbcode@1.26.7 it works, however by default it installs 0.16.1.

If I go to the extension's page, it shows the version is 0.16.1 and within a few seconds, it auto-updates to the latest version. (1.26.7 now)

I checked and the issue is the same with the latest insiders build as well.

From the log, you can see it fetches all the version for the extension but end up using 0.16.1 instead.
